[QUOTE="Chris@sabor, post: 729944, member: 40915"] First, I would say that more practice is more important than too much fiddling with camera settings. Meaning you will be fine with "S", shutter priority. The only thing I don't like about it is it will always try to leave your camera "wide open" in terms of F stop. Sometimes I want more depth of field and perhaps better sharpness (on some lenses) by stopping down a bit. In my opinion, manual mode is no more complicated than "A" or "S" mode. It just utilizes both dials to adjust shutter speed and F stop. It's easy to leave the F stop wide open or, with a couple click of the dial, stop down. I use auto ISO also and would recommend setting the limit a little higher. The D500 is very capable but, it takes practice and learning to get the most out of it. I have been shooting it nearly everyday for 3 years in manual mode and I'm still learning how to get better images with it. [/QUOTE]
