Any auto operation (other than vital functions of human beings... maybe) must allow deactivation. This is my firm belief.
Ther must be a "ISO sensitivity setting" menu item with the following options: 1 - flash linked to available light 2 - flash independent from available light By choosing option 2, when accessing ISO setting via Fn button you get two items to set. Nobody is forced to set ISO sensitivity setting to option 2, if he/she doesn't find it useful :-) Dario ----- Original Message ----- From: "Thibouille" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Pentax-Discuss Mail List" <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, September 03, 2006 10:17 AM Subject: Re: Two great small features I'd like o much > It is indeed a good idea IMO, if it can be deactivated of course.. > > 2006/9/3, Dario Bonazza <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: >> Hey Mike, you can always set both ISO settings to the same value, when >> needed. >> What's the problem?
