figure out
what it uses to make the decision.
I set the DS to ISO Coercion at 1600 limit, set the Fn menu ISO to
200, and wandered around all day today shooting with the FA20-35 and
FA50 in Av mode. I used a variety of f/stops from f/1.4 to f/11.
Looking at the specs on 53 exposures in all kinds of lighting, it
held ISO 200 until shutter speed reached about 1/40 to 1/60 second,
then boosted the ISO a stop, held it again to 1/30 second, boosted a
stop...
The result was very effective! I like this feature. Whomever designed
it and the pattern did a darn good job. I'll need to experiment more
to learn the entire pattern and how focal length influences it, but
right now I'm impressed.
Picture in a few minutes.
