Eh? I think you misunderstand me...I shoot at high iso all the time, because I have to. In fact, if you'd clicked on the last picture I posted to Flickr shown in my .sig, you'd have seen it was ISO 6400, 1/30sec, F2.8...(and handheld, no flash allowed...) which is so far out of the possibilities for old film cameras its not even worth contemplating!
The Auto-Iso function with minimum shutter speed is invaluable but I will still choose to keep the ISO as low as possible to maximise picture quality however, and so frequently disable the function to force ISO 200 when shooting outdoors (e.g. landscapes).
Apologies if I did, I thought you were saying that we should not be using high ISO to achieve high shutter speeds, 1/1250 sec at 6400 ISO was the figure you questioned.
Shooting birds in flight I will use 1/1000sec and ISO 6400 if required to do so.
