Within the Auto ISO settings, you can also set the minimum shutter speed where this “jump” to a higher ISO will occur. As the lighting diminishes, the camera will continue to increase the ISO until it reaches the “Ceiling” or maximum ISO that you’ve chosen as the highest ISO you’re willing to shoot at. The Auto ISO feature will automatically adjust the ISO setting to obtain the correct exposure for each new lighting condition. Rather than having to manually set the ISO along with shutter speed and aperture every time you walk into a different lighting scenario, you can set the Auto ISO. You may find yourself constantly going from low light to bright sunshine and shady areas outdoors. Lets say, for example, that you’re shooting a party and its being held both indoors and outside. Likewise, if the light gets brighter, the ISO is automatically lowered.īy automating the increase/decrease in ISO, you can focus more on your subject and worry less about the exposure. Auto ISO allows you to set a maximum ISO that you’re comfortable shooting at-in effect setting a “ceiling” for ISO, so if the light is constantly changing while you’re shooting, the camera can automatically adjust ISO as necessary without going over the “ceiling” you set.


Nikon makes it even more convenient for you to shoot in changing light with Auto ISO. This is a great convenience when you’re shooting under constantly changing lighting conditions, such as when you’re going from indoors to outside, or if the sky is partially cloudy or if you’re shooting in the shadows and then going into bright sunlight. Skip ahead to digital-and now, not only can you change the shutter speed and aperture with each image, but you can also change the ISO-on the fly-for each image you shoot. For photographers shooting film, the aperture and shutter speed might have changed from frame to frame, but ISO was always a constant-at least until you finished the rest of the roll of film (and at 24 or 36 exposures that was usually a ways away). A photographic exposure is dependent upon three variables: aperture, shutter speed and ISO.
