I've looked through the forum and can't find an answer to this. Is there a way to set the ISO or Shutter speed in the cyber commander to something other than full stops? Seems I often want to shoot at 1/160, iso 7.1, for example, and I just have to do some math in my head to get things set properly.

Thanks
Don

At this time, ISO and shutter speed are settable in full stop increments. Aperture values are displayed in 1/10 increments, and f/X.X' 3 and f/X.X' 7 are 1/3 and 2/3 equivilents. So 5.6' 7 would be the same as f/7.1.

I guess you could set a +0.3f or +0.7f in the upper right corner under CAL. So ISO100 and +0.3f would effectively give you ISO 160.

In a studio environment, shutter speed will not affect the metering function, so 1/125 vs 1/160 shutter speed will yield the same meter reading and the same captured exposure.
