I did an event this past fall in a gym
manual, auto iso, center weight average, f1.4, ss 1/250, 7 fps squish technique, and took shots of pairs -- just dropped back to 8 feet to get the 12 inches of dof -- all four eyes in focus - dxo PL5 NR --
know your distance and dof -- fantastic setting!!!
Thank you for this tip. You packed more good info that than is in the rest of this whole thread !
u r welcome
I have an app for my iphone 13 called
Simple DOF
study the app for your f1.4 setting on crop cameras, know your dof with the f1.4 setting and distance, plan and visualize the shots before ever arriving on the scene.
some of the best shots I've ever taken in over 1 million shots in 20 years, took study and planning before I ever arrived on the scene - it was as if I anticipated the shots, before they ever presented themselves, and I was in the right place at the right time ready with the right settings.
Set up on C2 on my out and about M6II.
What is your auto iso max ?
RAW with 12,800 max- and dxo PL
If you're shooting RAW (not CRAW) and using DxO PL, ISO 12,800 will give you no more shadow detail than shooting at ISO 3200 and pushing exposure using DxO. All you do by shooting at ISO 12,800 is blow out up to 1.5-2 stops of highlight detail, losing dynamic range. See the post at

interesting Larry - so you are saying it is iso invariant at iso 3200 and up?
also - what does this underexposure do to exposure simulation - can I even see what I'm shooting?
