I use full stops when setting the ISO, largely because of the Sunny 16 rule and I mostly shoot in Manual. Makes it easier for my old brain to do the math
Pretty crappy reason I suppose, but there it is.I always shoot in Aperture priority so when my shutter speed is too slow I just increase my ISO that's why i'm asking is it more ideal to use full stops of ISO.I use full stops when setting the ISO, largely because of the Sunny 16 rule and I mostly shoot in Manual.

Everything else works pretty good for me in 1/3 stops, particularity Exposure Compensation.
I adjust 1/3 Stop across the board on everything!..SS,...Ap,...ISO! I just look at the Math as the "Relationship",..the other 3 kings!
I use 1/3 stop increments shooting manual and adjusting the ISO on the fly. Just gives finer control. I believe the camera will give you 1/6 increments in Auto ISO but you can't select them manually.
No. Where the heck did you get that idea from?
I adjust f-stop, shutter speed and ISO in 1/3-stop increments. It keeps things consistent and simple.
I don't know the charts for the sensors in all Nikon cameras, but you need to look at the PDR charts from Bill Claff to know. DxO also has charts that can give you the answer. With some sensors there are ISOs you should avoid. For example, look at charts for the Nikon D5.
Depends on the camera. D5? Absolutely not. 400, 800, 1600, and 3200 are worse than intermediate ISOs. You need to use 320, 640, 1250, and 2500 instead for cleanest images.
I use full stop, because that is 3 times faster to adjust than using 1/3 stop.
Check out this comparison of the 7DII, D750, and D5 and I think it will clear things up for you.
