tomsemiterrific Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 I have a question about a setting for ISO on the Z6. On the default setting for ISO when you depress the ISO button to adjust ISO level on the back wheel you must keep the ISO button depressed while you make the adjustment. Awkward. I understand there is a menu setting that will enable you adjust the back wheel without the necessity of keeping the ISO button depressed while doing so. With that setting you can toggle the ISO function on and off. Anyone know where it is in the menu? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T.S Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 you can press the ISO button once, then adjust the ISO, don't have to always pressing the ISO button Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I have one more question. When I put the camera in photo mode I see the exposure meter on the right side of the screen. Fine. When I put the camera in video mode the exposure meter vanishes. WTF! No other camera manufacturer does this: Sony, Panasonic, Fuji, Canon, Olympus, etc: when you set the camera in video mode you retain the exposure meter--it's very important. Is there a menu setting that will correct the case of the vanishing exposure meter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. In video mode, you can only have the histogram display and highlight indicator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have any idea why they failed to do this? Do you think it would be a big problem to fix this in firmware? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its more a case of "Same as it ever was" rather than it being a specific omission on the Z cameras as its exactly the same in my other Nikon cameras like the D500 etc. so I'm guessing they don't get enough push back on it from users to have changed it. Whether that changes with Z cameras being a lot more video centric is open to debate I suppose. tomsemiterrific 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
