Normally, the auto-exposure program on a Pentax camera will try to set shutter speed proportional to the lens focal length, with aperture and ISO such that to achieve proper 18% grey exposure (based on spot, weigthed or matrix sensing). Av, Tv, Sv, TAv will define what is fixed and what can be changed by the camera to achieve 18% grey exposure. Now, if SR is enabled, nothing changes in how auto-exposure settings are achieved, even if SR would allow a shutter speed slower than the reciprocal of the lens focal length, which means the camera AE doesn't deliver the best possible exposure settings when SR is enabled, as the camera doesn't take advantage of SR performance.
I've tried to find a way to have shutter speed half of the lens focal length (one stop slower than normal), or even 1/4th of the normal shutter speed (two stops slower), but the camera (K1) will set other parameters as if SR was disabled.
If I use TAv, I can force the shutter speed to 1/10th s. for which I know SR will be effective to correct for camera motion, but then if there is more light than necessary at that 1/10th shutter speed, the camera will lower ISO to the minimum (ISO100), the ISO setting will blink in the OVF and the frame will be overexposed, when I would expect that the camera will increase the shutter speed for proper exposure even if I initially set it to 1/10th, but it won't.
So hopping that the camera would automatically correct my exposure setting when proper exposure isn't achieved, I enabled the option in menu C1-4 "Auto EV compensation"
. Unfortunately, when ISO is stuck blinking at 100, none of the exposure settings is being changed by enabling "Auto-EV compensation".
How can we work around that? Has anyone figured that out already?
