X-T2 Auto (1,2,3) selection

picnut said:

Just bought an X-T2 and installed the latest firmware, v3.00. I've selected the settings I want for ISO A1, A2 and A3, but I have not been able to determine the method for selecting one of the three settings. I would also like to know if I can set one of the function buttons or Q menu to give me quick access to that selection.

Press in on the front dial, and note which function the dial sets on each press. When it's set to ISO there's a dome icon over the "ISO" setting indicator in the display. There you can scroll from the lowest ISO through to the 3 auto ISO options.

If you set the exposure compensation dial to C, pressing the front dial adds an option of being able to control EC with the dial as well.

you have to activate the front dial for ISO. SETUP>BUTTON/DIAL SETTING>ISO DIAL SETTING (A)>COMMAND

Change the ISO DIAL SETTING from AUTO to COMMAND

Once this is complete you can depress the front dial and it will toggle between exposure correction and ISO. If you turn the dial all the way to the end you'll have the option to use one of the AUTO ISO settings you've configured.

Next question: The front dial now toggles between F and ISO when depressed. When ISO is selected the ISO is adjusted when the dial is turned. But, when F is selected turning the dial does nothing. Que pasa?

F is there to adjust the aperture on lenses without an aperture ring. I believe it's inactive until a lens without an aperture is mounted.
