[QUOTE="LouCioccio, post: 541416, member: 12542"] The manufactures dumb it down thinking its easier with Auto or scene modes. I am in the midst of teaching a Basic DSLR class most have never picked up a film camera and vaguely remember the Kodak Instamatic. In my slide presentation I showed them the the two shutter speeds it had and how more experience users kept the old flash cube to use the slower shutter speed. I have my film cameras and lenses to show them whats missing compared to the SWD lenses. The first class everyone is in manual mode and learn how to use it. It slows them down for the second class we go into modes (A,S,Av,Tv, etc) and metering modes (spot, center, average). By the third class we are into Flashes with on board and off camera with modifiers. We do go into TTL and why 90% okay and 10% fail when you have bright or dark background when the subject is not. Then to manual flash modes and why a combo flash/ambient meter is you best friend if you are serious in photography. The 4th session is a walk about and putting into practice the skills they learn. Dark statues agains a white back ground or a statue against a bright sky and so on as we walk about the center city of Erie,PA. Lou Cioccio [/QUOTE]
