Also changing of ISO and EV values at the same time never worked for me (resulted in too dark or none responsive ISO /EV settings which forced me to restart the cam UI), but behaved as expected if you change only one of the parameters from the either.

I guess we are talking about this "at the same time" scenario... It's not really useful if you can fix one of this parameters and you can't set the other, as for example, if you want to take a picture on lower light but still want to get a good grade of details you should set ISO to a low value (100/200), and Exposure to a higher value (I really prefer Fcam for this, though), which can be somewhat achieved setting higher EV... and you have to be patient and non-shaking hands, or a tripod or somewhere to fix the cam... On the other side, you may wish to get the best of an even lower light scenery and set high ISO and High EV...
