re Squirrel photos I took this when I only had one card in the camera, and I think the images were all jpeg. I looked at it in Nikon Studio, and there is nothing next to ISO sensitivity. I have since added a card, and set the camera up to save RAW images to Slot 1 and jpg to Slot 2.I can see the ISO values in photos I have taken since I added the card. Here

Just looking at this pigeon photo’s EXIF data, shows the ISO was 6400 using 1/800 @ f11.
Although the D600 takes acceptable photos at 6400, cameras of that era produced best IQ below 2000.
Looking at the files shutter speed and fstop, for a static subject like this, there is a lot of latitude in those settings to bring the ISO down to maximise quality.
For example using 1/400th at f8 would reduce the ISO to 1600.
I personally believe you would see better IQ by keeping ISO as low as possible.
