KM5D ISO Setting in View Finder

[tankm]

Learn something new today from DYXUM.COM forum and had confirmed it. You can see/change your current ISO setting from the KM5D view finder.

Press the ISO button and the viewfinder will show the current ISO setting. You can use the scroll wheel next to your shutter to change ISO. Half press the shutter to select the ISO. All this without lifting your eye from the view finder. Only thing is, the LCD screen switch ON as well, which can be annoying to some.

Noticed that the 1st time I tried my wife's 5D: that's one aspect of 5D that's better than my 20D. I could use her 5D and change ISO on th fly without lifting eye from finder. On my 20D I am now used to guessing what ISO I have if I press the ISO button and turn wheel left/right: not always correct guess as I must remember how many clicks I turn the wheel.

i suppose it should be the same as the 7D?
changing of ISO, WB, compensation, etc are all reflected in the VF

Manage to test it. Quite useful. Thanks

No idea for 7D, but heard it's the same. If not I guess all the 7D owners will be fuming mad. :bsmilie:

interesting... i noticed it when i bought the 5D but seldom have a need to change ISO on the fly so much that i can't look up for a sec.

All these nice little things that makes a camera a camera, lets hope Sony keeps them.
