Good question, Al. When creating pleasing blurs or when working against backgrounds of a consistent tone, AUTO ISO in Manual mode works well. But the folks who are using it for general bird photography cannot possibly come up with the correct exposure as in nature, the backgrounds change from one second to the next. Nobody can set or change the EC as fast as the backgrounds change. The is why Manual Mode is best, with the photographer setting the ISO for the subject in constant light.
