Auto ISO on D80

How do I know if my Auto ISO is actually working? The D80 does not show the actual ISO value in the viewfinder.

1. Auto ISO will show in the viewfinder if switched on

2. It will blink when the shutter is half depressed if it is haviing to raise ISO

3. You can check what ISO by pressing the spare function button (front right below focus assist light)
4. You can confirm what ISo by reviewing the photo once taken.

Auto will flash in the view finder when it kicks in to warn you that the iso value has changed from what you set it at.

The function button comes by default set to show the iso in the viewfinder when pressed (but you might have changed that.)

After you take a picture and auto iso is flashing in the view finder you can look at the picture info on the screen. The iso value will be in red if auto iso kicked in, it will display the value.
