you can quickly change the iso sensitivity by simultaneously pressing the Fn button on the front left the of the camera and sliding the 'roller' to the left or right. remember to turn off the auto iso sensitivity first and set the Fn button as Iso's hotkey at the menu. hope this help :)
great tip! I do this myself but have been wondering, is there any way to use autofocus while in Aperture priority mode or manual mode so that I can control the iso/shutter speed/aperture while utilizing the len's autofocus capability or is it not possible? I mainly find trouble in low light settings where I don't want to use flash and although the longer exposure produces a better image in terms of less noise, the blurriness caused by movement is an issue and I would like to increase the brightness by the ISO instead of the shutter speed while utilizing autofocus to ensure a clear subject image
im a highschooler taking a photo course and you have no clue just how helpful this was! I love my teacher but sometimes she forgets that we're only in photo 1 and we're new to working with this type of stuff. Thank you so so SO much. Also, is there any chance you could do something with photo montages?
Hi Sabrina, glad it has helped, I'm actually a High School Media teacher so this is what I have made this video for! in the process of creating more so stay tuned!
question: whenever i try to set my aperture higher than the minimum i get an error that says "pleas epress the shutter release button again". is my lens faulty? i was asking around and a few other people believe the motor in the lens that controls aperture has failed
It is possible to hotkey it this way so pressing the FN button will change the ISO - there is no difference other than the method in which the ISO changes
+Joanne Amarisa the f-stop is restricted when you zoom further in on the lens. make sure you are zoomed all the way out, this should solve the problem.
Hii I have a question. When I change the aperture to f5.6 or lower the picture gets really dark! I can only change that if I turn the iso on 1000 or higher! I also have this with the shutterspeed! How can I change this??
Hi Noa, I am going to assume that either your lighting situation is very dark and you will need to open curtains/use external lights etc, or more likely your shutterspeed is too fast for your lighting condition. I would suggest that if your aperture is 5.6 make sure you lightmeter is on 0 by adjusting your shutter speed to a slower speed (try 1/40) anything below that you will need a tripod though. hope that helps
The f-stop on the camera in the video goes down to f3.5. It will always depend on the lens you have on the camera. You should be able to see this information on the rim around the glass at the front of the lens. ON a zoom lens it will often tell you the lowest f-stop for both zoomed all the way in and out.
