[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 180464, member: 13090"] No problem I just want to make sure we're on the same page... So you want to set your exposure settings based on correct exposure for Point A and keep those exposure settings anywhere you point the camera? Well, if you're going to be using a consistent aperture and ISO I think the simple solution would be to shoot in Manual. I'd set a specific ISO in-camera (turn off Auto ISO of course) and aperture, then meter the scene you want to base your exposure on using "A" mode to get the correct shutter speed. Switch to Manual, set your shutter speed as suggested by the metering you just did and you're good to go. For quick adjustments use the Exposure Compensation button/Command Wheel (I set mine for 1/2 stop per click of the wheel vs. the default of 1/3). With a few minutes of practice you can get really fast with that combination. [COLOR="#FFFFFF"]......[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
