Auto ISO in M with bracketing

[Exodies]

It's pouring down here when I wanted to go out and shoot up the neighbourhood so instead I started looking at exposure bracketing. I was using spot metering so had live view switched on - this gave me three lock-ups (no EVF) but that's not why I'm here. With the shutter set to 1/15th the bracketed set was

1/30th, 1/15th, 1/8th

 

but the auto ISO was

1600 (my max), 200, 200

 

200 is the previous manually set value.

With the shutter set to A the ISO seemed more sensible, 1600 all round.

 

Here are the camera settings, the three manual shutter speed shots, and the three auto shutter speed shots.

 

Is it me or is it them (points towards Wetzlar)? Thanks for your comments.

I saw a similar thing when I accidentally left my ISO on Auto so I don't think your camera is faulty. But the M is weatherproof so what were you doing inside anyway!
