I usually use manual and aperture prioirty modes, both of which are fine. Do make sure though that your ISO setting is not set on auto. I would start with 200 ISO as this seems to be the optimum setting.
in manual the iso is only selectable, and taking pics of my kids indoors i need fast shutters speeds hench flash with 180/sec speeds and if i drop the apature more in those modes it will over expose more, just seems abit flawed, my k20d i never had this problem,

Far better to use flash in a more appropriate mode I think.

hi all i am having problems with my k7 using the flash in tav and user mode, if i select 180/sec f8 using the flash with auto iso its trying to bump the iso up to iso 1600 which is way over expsing it.

if i have it in p mode i can adjust the shutter speed or apature only one at a time, so if i select an apature of f8(ap priority) it selecst the shuter speed of 180/sec and selects say iso 640(in auto 100-1600 iso) cames out ok.

in both modes the shutter speed and apature are the same yet why is it over exposing it so much in user and tav mode.

i even think in the other modes it bumps the iso up to fast using the flash.

any help most greatfully recieved.

Unfortunately the Sigma teleconverters do not work with their own (HSM) lenses which seems mad to me. I still don't think we will see a 100-300mm f4 with OS for a while as Sigma dont even make that in Canon/Nikon mount yet.
