Few questions about X100v
Few questions about X100v
Oct 30, 2020
first post here so hello all.
I recently acquired an x100v. First thing I noticed was when I set iso to auto ( and setting a max of 3200 in the iso3 profile) the camera constantly sits at an iso of 3200 even when outside on a bright day. I watched a video recently featuring nick turpin and half way through you see a shot of his evf and it’s doing the same thing - mostly sat at 3200 and occasionally dipping down lower. Is this normal? Surely outside I should be able to use much slower isos and still get an exposure ?
The other thing I thought was odd is that the exposure meter is in the far left of the viewfinder. I sort of have to move my eye position a bit to see it. Does anyone know if you can change this? Can’t find anything in the manual so far. I shoot manual and use the meter a fair bit. Maybe I’m just old fashioned and should be concentrating on the histogram more ? Still seems odd the put the meter on the left and not at the bottom.
