One of the things I've noticed is that digital cameras handle under exposure much better than they do over exposure. I've been able to get very good prints from exposures that were three stops under exposed using most digital photo editors. and better yet using PhotoShop. Under those circumstances, ISO 400 equates to a pretty high ISO. Have other digital shooters noticed this or is it just me?

Subject: *ist D's ISO range (was: Fw: unanswered and unasked)

I raised the question twice, I believe, in the days before you joined. I do
a lot of shooting at ISO 800 to 1250. It would be a pity if the *ist D could
not be used to shoot indoor school plays.


There is no secret method for "goosing" the ISO speed. Whatever Pentax
delivers, we'll be stuck with.

Mike J asks us to stay calm; the ISO range may not yet be "fixed."

New to the list and a little surprised that no one seems to want to know the
ISO specs on the *ist D. Are they like the D100 or are they like the 10D?


I'd sure like them to be ISO 100 to ISO 6400.

Maybe I'm missing something. Perhaps if no one cares it's because there's
some secret method of goosing the speed of the chip in post. Could this be?
Has anyone tried it with those earlier models?
