[QUOTE="Joseph Bautsch, post: 3283, member: 654"] Anthony - Thanks for mentioning that. I was going to put that in there some where but it was not on my priority list and just plain forgot. Unfortunately I'm both handed and still find myself fumbling with the wheels when I know which way to turn them. I got the idea for the article from a newbie who was intimidated and reluctant to even try it. They were avoiding the one camera feature that would teach them more about exposure that any other. To be a good photographer you have to have an awareness of exposure. You have to be able to look at what you are going to shoot and decide what exposure to use. It's your sense of creativity that makes the picture and there is no setting for that on the camera. As a general rule I leave the mode dial set on Aperture. I use the shutter priority with my 300mm. You use flash in the manual mode? That's unusual. Good for you. I have found few who even use manual much less with flash. Maybe some of you guys who know how to use manual will write up a scenario on how and when you shoot with it. [/QUOTE]
