ISO not staying consistent when switching through C1-C7

Hi! It’s not been long since I’ve had my X-T30ii but I love this little thing and had it on me the past weekend everyday. This is not my first camera, just my first Fujifilm and although shooting with it is a lot of fun, there’s on thing that frustrates me a bit. 
 

My ISO does not stay consistent when switching through the custom recipes. It does not matter if it’s Porta 400, Vibrant Arizona or Kodachrome: SS and Aperture stay the same, ISO does not. 
 

I shoot in full manual and have multi set as my photometry setting. So whenever I switch through my Customs I end up with an over- or underexposed preview on the screen and end up having to readjust again which sort of doesn’t feel like that’s the point in recipes. I do get how some recipes are better in certain scenarios than others but if I really wanted to be in the moment with my subject that I want to take a picture off, and the ISO switches from 200 to 4000 on the next recipe, then that’s a bit of an inconvenience.

Is it supposed to be this way? And if so, is there a way to minimise this problem? Would AUTO ISO with aperture priority make it better?

Its difficult to see how any of the settings could cause ISO to switch from 200 to 4000 - I'd suggest you look at the different individual settings in the two recipes and find the one thats causing the difference - some settings like Dynamic Range and D Range Priority could make an ISO difference but not from 200 to 4000.

Maybe you can post links to two (straight out of camera) image files - one which resulted in ISO 200 and the other with 4000 and we could see the differences in the settings. (Make sure everything else is identical such as the lighting and the scene).

      Display ISO will be chosen when auto iso is set

      By Cronin · Posted

      Found the simple answer to my own question. Having assigned Auto ISO to the rear dial, I only have to push in the dial to make the Auto ISO options appear, then turn the dial to choose. Nice and fast.

      Hello All, I am returning to photography after a decades-long hiatus that was prompted by my loss of access to a darkroom. Digital rendered that excuse moot, so I now return with a recently purchased XT5. I am from the Hudson River Valley in New York where I have spent the past five decades engaged in environmental work, mostly on the Hudson. I teach at Pace University where I direct the Gale Epstein Center for Technology, Policy and the Environment. My project ahead is documenting the unseen Hudson, a combination of the obscure, under-appreciated, and invisible - a street-style approach to people, places and things that make the river what it is. There will be little landscape, if any. The "Mighty Hudson" is well-documented. If nothing else, it will be a mission-driven project to bring me back to photography while learning my camera. I look forward to everything this amazing site can teach me. Cronin

      Fuji X-T4 AF-S and-C

      By IMX · Posted

      Hi,   I would really appreciate if someone could answer this question. Is it possible to have the X-T4 shoot in AF-S for photo mode and AF-C in video mode while the front lever is left at AF-S?  If so, how would this be done or wher in the menu system would I set this up? This is similare to setting the apeture at f/2.8 for photo mode but fioming at f/4 in video which I already have setup. Thanks and kind regards

      According to the manual you can assign auto ISO to any one of the function buttons but I've never tried it. (It's not something I frequently change so all my function buttons do other things.)

      Hello, I have a new xt5 and have enjoyed its setup, until now. I hope someone with patience can help me through my ISO dilemma. My question: I have assigned settings for Auto ISO 1,2 and 3.  Should I be able to select Auto ISO 1, 2, or 3 for a shot? If so, how?  Or is the camera supposed to. At present, my screen shows Auto ISO 3, and never changes. I assigned ISO to the rear dial to no effect. Of course, when I half depress the shutter button is see the actual ISO in real time, but the function of the Auto ISO and how to control it has me confused. Thanks for any help.
