I have a K-5 and I have it set at 80 ISO, on the lowest ISO I believe you can set a K-5.

A friend has a K-5 11s and the lowest we can set the 11s' ISO to is 100 ?

Can the K-511s be set to 80 ISO and if so, how does one do this ?

Did he mess with highlight cx on HDR settings?

You need to go in into the custom function menu and enable expanded ISO sensitivity. This will unlock ISO 80 as well as 25600 and 51200.

Don't think so. I reset all that...when I reset to factory settings. Thanks for the suggestion though.
