Hi welcome to the forum. Can you give a more detailed explanation of the problem. I manual mode M selected on top dial what are the readings before and after. Remember the meter is always working but it should indicate over or under exposure not changed settings.

with the dial turned to M and 1/60 second, f/22, ISO 100, manual exposure with flash. I take a pic and then it will change to 1/200 or 1/50

I don't have a D5000 anymore but a D5300. Go to ISO Sensitivity settings and> to AUTO ISO SENSATIVITY CONTROL and set it to OFF, if the D5000 has that setting. This may work or you may have clicked the rear shutter speed dial while taking your picture.

Have you checked ... Exposure BRACKETING isn't set to ON. This would give you sequential shots with different exposure settings. If you don't mind me saying.... Don't use f22. Most lens quality improves as the fstop gets smaller to say f11. Beyond this figure the quality drops off again. So using it at f22 is not optimum. Also it requires slower shutter speeds to get sufficient exposure. This can lead to you getting further loss of sharpness due to camera shake. Finally, using a flash gun will require more power to project enough light to illuminate at f22....so you will drain your batteries quickly. For most general photographic applications you would be better off using f5.6 or f8.

Surely the whole point of auto ISO is for the ISO to change to ensure correct exposure at the fixed shutter and aperture parameters?

Eric, this setting gives a choice to the feature. Sometimes an exact manual exposure is required as when using a GigaPan for large panoramic shots, and having the ISO variable would skrew up the shot. Also required when stacking pix.

Hick, re: and picked a D5000 Have you done a complete reset of the camera? Some previous owner may have set something we all cannot think of. If you do not have a printed manual, get the PDf version. Regeards, Gilbert
