High ISO setting for exr auto

doraemon88 · 16th March 2009

Hi, just bought a f200 over the weekend. I have observed that when I set to exr auto mode, the ISO setting tends to be adjusted to at least 800. The resulting pictures tends to be very noisy. This happens even in well-lit environment. Is this normal for this camera? The individual exr mode works quite well when set manually though.

Yes, its normal... that is why i dun really go for EXR fully Auto... likewise for any Camera autofocus, like 450D 11-point and D90 11- point autofocus.. it can erratic at times.. so i still stick to AF centre...

to control the noise, i will opt for EXR - High ISO and set to ISO800 and below..

dun everything auto auto lah..

I have been trying out different modes and is quite amazed by what this cam can do. Right now, I think i will stick to the exr sn mode as the picture quality seems to be the best most of the time.

I guess F200 noise is acceptable. I think at ISO 1600 it retain more details than F31 but slightly noiser. Overall i am impress by the quality!!!!! Try Macro with flash!!! Sweee swee one!!!
