There seems to be a presumption that self isolation means you can't leave home, but rightly or wrongly I interpret it as keep a good distance between yourself and others, and not touching anything that others might touch.

So, I could wander around in an open space with my camera, and use my own legs, car, etc to get there and back if distant from my home.

Thoughts?
I'm with you on this! I'll be self isolating on many local beaches to me
I think you are both confusing selfish isolation with self isolation

It looks like the option was crippled sometime after the K5 as that works the way you want it to.

ISO 1600 wow I have just come back from a shoot in Durham Cathedral, K5ii ISO manual between 6400 & 12800 Sony on auto ISO between 4000 & 25600. In a controlled studio setting it would have been a doddle for the K1

Last Saturday evening I went fishing for the first time of the season. I saw what I thought was a fish moving, but on closer inspection I realized it was an otter. I sat and watched two otters feeding for over thirty minutes. Even a kingfisher flew past, what a night.
