Yeah too right, the amount of times i have forgotten to change it back to a sutable setting after doing some handheld low light shots on 800 or something:bang:Warspite said:As above - use shutter speed, aperture, focus point, and if shooting in varying conditions will use the exposure compensation.
ISO would be useful if only to avoid the risk of shooting in at an unecessary level by mistake.
Never even looked for it, I'll take your word that it's thereCT said:Please tell me you can see the ISO in that 1D viewfinder Doddy!
I find the visual ISO check useful, especially when I've forgotten to change it. Also the In-focus light and the Exposure Compensation warning is useful too - it's all too easy to forget you've set it. I often change the aperture with my eye to the camera too, so I suppose I use it a lot.

CT, it *still* isn't part and parcel of the viewfinder, as the shutter speed and aperture are.
You still have to press the ISO button to see it, however, with there only being three buttons on the top of the camera (obviously excluding the light button), then it's easy to feel the middle one and keep looking in the viewfinder, while you rotate the back wheel.

whitewash said:im so used to the fact that by looking at the shutter speed and aperture in the viewfinder i can tell if i have the wrong iso setting.....
shooting a gig tonight was fun, i enjoyed it, ill post some results and some less expected results... tomorrow
You people didn't already know this !?!?!CT said:Another nice tweak which is in the 30D's favour then.

I thought that was the only reason to go for a 30D over 20D
