Personally I hardly ever use it. Only when I'm in a situation where light
changes a lot. But generally I'd rather know the picture is razor sharp with
no noise and sacrifice a little DOF, then higher ISO.
Besides, sometimes I get away with shooting at 1/15 out of the hand, other
times (when I've been walking uphill for example) I'm too shaky and need a
faster speed.
So in my case I can't set a minimum shutterspeed, because it varies with the
situation I'm in.

Then again: you have the D3, so you got no worries about ISO

Yes he can with the D300... I just tried it...

IS TRUE, THEN
- "there were no pro users before auto-ISO"
- "people shooting film (including, large format) nowadays cannot
be pros"
- "Ansel Adams didn't use auto-ISO, therefore he was no pro"
ARE ALSO TRUE.[1]

However, if "All the pros use auto-ISO" is true, it does not
follow that "those who use auto-ISO are pros".[2] Rita may use
auto-ISO ...

[1] A => B ===> ¬B => ¬A
("if A then B" forces "if not B, then not A")
A: "is a pro"
B: "uses auto-ISO"

This is logic 101, which is mathematics, which many people
don't even want to grasp. Ask your maths teacher if in doubt.


[2] A => B =/=> B => A
"All women are humans" =/=> "all humans are women"

Logic 101.

Ah, another one to fail Logic 101.

FREE! hint for you:
If some claim leads by logic to results that are simply wrong
and you cannot refute the logic, the claim must be wrong.

And this is relevant and on topic for photography in what way, Einstein?
