I use TAV mode with my K5IIs almost all of the time, unless I am indoors where I may switch to manual mode with a flash head to be effective in lower light. If you are indoors in somewhat lower light using green mode, you are right, the camera may use the 3200 iso. If you use the built in flash in some cases that may help a bit, but a flash like the AF360fgz, AF540fgz, or their newer counterparts will give you decisively excellent results if utilized correctly in manual mode.The TAV mode allows you to test with different f-stop (aperture) and shutter speed combinations to achieve an iso result you may find the most helpful. When I am outdoors I have used TAV mode a majority of the time, with my K20D, K5, and K5IIs, and it is a very helpful tool.
