1.) Open CF card door and leave it open.
2.) Power on the body.
3.) Press menu and OK together.
4.) Press UP, down, left, right buttons individually in sequence.
5.) Press the shutter button all the way, and then press OK.
6.) Press down and it'll show a 'page 3' display with some bunch of metrics.
7.) At 'page 3', press in sequence: LEFT, up, right, down, shutter (fully), and then OK.
8.) Left entry choose 10, and right entry choose anywhere from 1 to 23 for ISO 50 till 10000. Press OK when done.
9.) Close CF card door and you'll be placed into the body's usual ready-to-shoot mode.
10.) Notice that the ISO is set to 'Auto'. As long as it's in 'Auto', it's the ISO you have set from step 8 just now. To reset, just choose some other ISO number and you'll have to do steps 1 till 9 again to get your super-high ISO setting.

Works on my E-330 but might also work on other E-series cameras. If Menu+OK doesn't work in step 3, use Play+OK instead.

Of course the higher ISOs are grainier than even ISO 1600 but hey, if you need it, you need it. Not to miss Bigfoot lurking in the shadows again! ;)

Does other brands have such hidden features too?
 

i wonder why they didn't showcase this feature when they promote their cameras? iso 10000 doesn't look too bad...got any code for iso 20000? :bsmilie::bsmilie::bsmilie:
 

Thanks, it seems to work now. I just have to test it. It is a bit complicated to set it, it's a pitty that nobody can make it permanent. Maybe there is an other trick to that.
 

Anyone found the steps to get back to the ISO 50~10000 after the firmware upgrade??:dunno:

Nah.. can't. Dunno if you can downgrade your firmware.
 

How to downgrade the firmware??:dunno:
 

Does this work for E-1? Anyone tried? Didn't work when I tried.

Cheers.
