ISO Dial

[itchphoto]

Hi, firstly im in love with my camera , the images that I get are so good that it has sparked up my passion for photography. I was wondering if there was any way of controlling this without having to use the iso dial? If not its not a problem I will get used to it. Also i am debating selling my 5d's to fund getting more lenses for the fuji as currently i have the 35mm 1.4 and the 18mm f2 , i was considering  getting the 16mm 1.4 and also the 23 1.4, and using this setup for professional use. The only reason I wouldn't do this is simply peoples reaction to pro with a small camera... does anyone have any experience with this,, go check out my instagram to see how I use the fuji ,, thanks!

Welcome to the wonderful world of Fujifilm. At the moment it's just the dial that controls ISO. At first I found it a little uncomfortable to use however after a few months of use I now really like it and now don't have to take the camera away from my eye to change ISO. It's probably not as quick as a button push followed by few clicks of another button but it's not far off.

I can't tell what the OP meant by "controlling this". What "this"?

The ISO dial is the only way to control the ISO settings. I think you will like it once you get used to it. I also came from the Canon side and it did take a little time to adjust to using the physical controls compared to the button/dial driven format of the canons, but not I greatly prefer it. I begin to adjust the settings as i am approaching the subject. You can easily look down at the camera and set ISO, Shutter Speed, and Aperture with the camera off. If you need to make a quick adjustment while shooting or holding the camera to your face, it is easy enough to lift and adjust the ISO dial and see the settings change in the viewfinder. 

 

I checked out you instagram. I like your work. I have not had any one comment on the camera gear, but I don't regularly do professional shoots right now. The only thing I have noticed is that people seem to be a little more relaxed which is a benefit. I am in the process of selling the remaining Canon gear, just two lenses left. If I end up getting back into shooting professionally, I will be all in with Fujifilm.

David Bailey always used a small camera and it doesn’t seem to have harmed his career.

I've done 2 weddings. Most people were curious about the Xpro2 and approached me later for a look see.

The only alternative to the ISO dial is auto ISO.

My initial problem with the ISO dial wasn't "the dial" - it was seeing where I was going through the little window. THEN, it dawned on me to just look at the LCD ISO indicator while lifting and turning the dial. Doh! No problem at all, now.
