Nikon D750 & D780

Guess what I've done folks
 
Matrix for most, general everyday conditions for me. You get to know the conditions where it's fooled and compensate, or use a different method accordingly.

I suppose the main condition when I change to spot is where extreme highlights are in the scene, such as shooting into the sun.

Nooooo don't confuse him more, he's just settled back on the D750 again. We're going to have another 6 months of contemplating buying another camera now :facepalm: ;)

I think he's buying both. Unless he's selling the d750 at a later date, which won't happen coz it's to good.
 
I said this before and I say it again...

I wishes you know when you press info on this camera that screen comes up with all info i.e. iso what picture mode is set on etc i wishes we can control from that screen using the pad to select which one to alter... JUST like the FN on the sony and the Q on the canon lol

Or the info button the nikon, like I've told you before.
 
When you press that info button on the nikon you can alter any of it
 
Am talking about the info button not the I button

So what's the issue? It's still a "q" menu. I don't really use it but know it's there. Prefer 'manual' controls with top lcd review.

This is just preference, and probably what you're used to. My old Sony had something similar and I find it cumbersome. I find the Nikon way of adjusting ISO, WB, metering mode, focus mode etc etc much quicker, I hate having to go into menus to adjust stuff. As I said though, if your preference is to adjust the slow way via menus then maybe going back to Canon is a better option for you? ;)
 
It wasn't slow at all on the canon one click wheel it and fire away.. I have got use to the way the Nikon does it though.. Anyway I need to get learning be surprise is there something I don't know about lol..
 
What colour people using sRGB or Adobe ...

Do people using the auto ISO? I tried this lastnight but the shutter speed was too low.

I use auto ISO a lot of the time, really useful for sports using manual mode so I can set aperture and shutter but not have to worry about exposure when I'm panning. I use sRGB as my entire workflow is sRGB.

One click but then use the control pad to highlight the setting, much easier/quicker for each setting to have a button of its own imo. Press it, turn control dial job done. With menus it's press button to enter menu, scroll to setting, change setting, exit menu. So long winded :p
 
Do you have minimum shutter speed set when you got auto ISO on???

Ok I see you point regarding the menu pal will do some digging and work out some more use things. Like this live view learnt so,ting about it yesterday when it can alter the screen with exxsposure.

No offense Rooks but if you haven't learnt the benefits of manual controls after roughly 1 1/2 years ownership you may be better with a simple menu system like Fuji etc provides.

Yes, you should set min shutter speed. I would recommend setting max ISO too. With shutter speed I generally set it to auto IIRC as it won't go below 1/focal length. You can adjust auto too so it does 1 stop faster than 1/focal length etc too.

As for the menu's I"m half pulling your leg as it is just preference and we all have our way of working, although it is genuinely faster imo if you know where your buttons are rather than delving into menus.
 
Ermmm No I know how to use M don't be cheeky I been a canon user for 6 years but they have all worked different to this D750...

What I am saying I know all about shutter speed and Aperture etc.. What I am asking is when I use Auto iso and in A mode the shutter speed always stays at 50 while the iso alters

Nope. ISO will be at the base ISO you choose (eg 100) and the camera will alter shutter speed in aperture priority to get the right exposure. Only when shutter reaches the minimum speed will ISO start to go up.
