It should only show the line of index 3, so the output would be:
Code:
3 200

If you turn the 2nd grep with an modified awk it could look like this:
Code:
gphoto2 --get-config /main/imgsettings/iso | \
    grep -v [LTC][auy]] | \
    grep ^3" " | \
    awk '{print $3}'

In this case we first filter out the Label, Type and current, and then limit the output to index 3, and using awk to just print the value of 200.

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code: (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified. AUTHOR
