For some reason, my D70 seems to not record ISO in the EXIF metadata. The problem persists regardless of whether I shoot auto or manually, or with or without auto ISO. Problem cannot be with Photoshop CS2 because it reads ISO from another camera correctly.
Any suggestions?

My D100 does the same, and I think my girlfriend's D50 also.

Patrick, when you review the images on camera, does the ISO display correctly? If so, this would imply the data is being recorded. Have you tried processing your photos in a different app?

Nikon DSLRs seem to have a 'bug' that places the ISO in the MakerNote field, which PS can't read. Other EXIF viewers (IrfanView, Opanda, etc.) are able to read it, though.
To get PS to read the ISO, you need a utility called 'ISOFix'.

To install it, unzip all files to a temporary folder and run setup.exe. To use, right-click on a folder name and select "ISO Fix". The application will attempt to correct all images in the folder.

Thanks, John. ISOFix "fixed" the problem -- provided one remembers to "ISOfix" each folder after downloaded and before using Photoshop. It's too bad, though, that Adobe has not addressed this problem in one of its updates. For the high cost of CS2 one would think they could (and should) do so. Of course, one could equally justifiably say that, considering the cost of their camera (more than CS2) Nikon should issue an update of the software for the D70s.

Glad it worked for you, Patrick.
I'll bet that Adobe would concur with your last sentence.
