Sounds like a bug in the firmware.

I say so but Fuji say that is as intended and that you should put your ISO to a low value and allow the camera to adjust ISO upwards to obtain a match with your minimum shutter speed or higher and f stop chosen.

I think it should be like on the Canon and Nikon where it adjusts ISO to get the correct exposure.  That is what users expect.  In fairness to them they have set other parameters such as minimum shutter speed and say this is intended for low light level shooting not for sunny situations.

Eric,
Rich's photo shows EXIF with ISO 1250, f16 and 1/60th sec shutter speed.
This equivalent to EV+10 which is not so bright, probably a UK bright overcast day.
 
I'm worried as this implies a SAB problem to me.

Maths isn't my strong point but for a sunny UK day (100asa f16, 1/125) Richs settings would be 4 stops over exposed....wouldnt they?

Yes four stops is right.
I also notice that the EXIF I am seeing is not the same as Rich is quoting.
He says f11, I see f16.

Wish I was in Oz as I could test with him.

But then there's the risk of the Southern Pox.

No had chicken pox and have a good antiviral immunity.

I'd take my chance.
