Hi everyone,

Asking the experts herre, maybe someone will be able to tell me what I missed...

I have 2 Auto ISO settings: 1 for general hand held shooting, with a minimum shutter speed of 1/5s and max ISO of 800; 1 for action shooting, with max ISO of 6400 and minimum shutter speed of 1/2000s.

On my X-T20 I was able to put the Auto ISO mode in the Quick menu, to be able to quickly switch if I need suddenly need action. I have tried to replicate that on my X-T5 but I can't find how to do that, it seems this option of the Quick Menu is gone. So currently I have to go into the menus everytime I want to change auto ISO modes, which kinda defeat the action setting... is there a way to assign that to a command somewhere instead?

Thank you for your help.

You can certainly assign the auto-ISO options to any of your function buttons or swipe gestures. I’ve always assigned it to the right d-pad button - different min. SS settings for each preset, but base ISO to ISO 12800 limits for all three to avoid conflicts/overrides.
 
On my X-T5 I've got the front command dial set to auto ISO setting and exposure comp. Just click the dial to switch between the 2 then rotate the dial to change settings
