Are you a new DSLR user and looking for how to change iso on Nikon d5600? You might already know what ISO is and how it impacts image quality. If that’s true, chances are you want to learn more about the ISO settings available on your particular camera model and function as well.
Here I’m going to show you how to change iso on Nikon d5600. I’ll cover the functions and buttons on the control panel, then explain the basic concepts behind ISO, before we get down to having a play with it.
The Nikon d5600 is an entry-level camera with 24 megapixels. This camera has one of the most customizable ISO settings I’ve ever used. In normal light, it goes from 100 all the way up to 25600, and also has Auto ISO, which will set it as high as 9600 in low light conditions.
How To Change Iso On Nikon D5600
On the right side of the screen, you will see the ISO setting. With the D5600, it’s in the upper-right corner.
The ISO setting controls how sensitive your camera is to light. The lower the number, the less sensitive it is. To change your ISO setting on your Nikon D5600, take these steps:

1. Turn on your camera and display shooting mode options. You can do this in the following steps:
Press the “Mode” button located on top of your camera (see image above). It has a little icon with a square and a triangle on it.
This will bring up all of your shooting modes, including the various creative modes such as Aperture Priority, Shutter Speed Priority, and Program Mode, which allows you to adjust both settings if you wish.
Or you can press the “i” button located behind the shutter button on top of your camera (see image below) to bring up all shooting mode options. From here, by scrolling down with either dial, you will be able to scroll through all your shooting modes and make adjustments as desired.
TIP: If you’re shooting in Manual mode, remember that as you increase your ISO setting you’re also increasing the noise/grain levels in your photo. So if you have a lot of ambient light, try setting it at 100 or 200 and use a slower shutter speed to capture more light if possible. Otherwise, when you have to raise the ISO, even more, to avoid blur from camera shake or fast-moving subjects, your photos will start to look too noisy.
Nikon d3500 change iso in manual mode
Yes, the Nikon D3500 is a great camera for beginners (see this guide for my full review), but even pros need to be able to change the ISO.
Troubleshooting: The D3500 has a tendency to overexpose images, so it’s important to be able to change the ISO yourself in manual mode.
Step 1: Open up the menu and navigate to Custom Settings Menu > d Shooting/display > ISO sensitivity settings > ISO sensitivity.
Step 2: The default value is set at ISO 100. Change it by selecting the right arrow button and then using the front dial to increase or decrease the value.
Step 3: While still in manual mode (M on the Mode dial), turn your rear Command dial until you see an aperture number that’s brighter than f/3.5. Make sure your rear Command dial is in Tv mode and not Av mode; otherwise, your aperture will change but your shutter speed will remain unchanged.
That’s it! I find that ISO 200 is usually a good place to start, but some people prefer to use 800 or 1600 when shooting in low light situations with this camera due to the fact that it has a tendency to overexpose images.
Does Nikon D3500 have auto iso?
Nikon D3500 does not have Auto ISO. Auto ISO is a feature that automatically adjusts your camera’s ISO setting to capture the most appropriate shutter speed, aperture, and ISO when shooting in low-light or high-dynamic-range situations. Nikon has included Auto ISO in some of their cameras, such as the Nikon D750 and Nikon D810, but not the Nikon D3500.
If you need an affordable DSLR camera and want auto ISO, I recommend the Nikon D5500. It’s a step up from the Nikon D3500 in terms of features and image quality and includes Auto ISO.
