[QUOTE="lorenbrothers, post: 509385, member: 41042"] I'm with some of the old coots here and stuck in the 60's and 70's. Back when cameras weren't "smart". ;) If I am doing landscapes or stationary shooting it is 'manual' all the way. If it is on the move I will set the ISO and let the camera fuss with the rest ... but it chaps me. ;) My major beef is with auto-focus ... purely and simply: I hate it. It is either going to focus on the wrong thing like a twig in the foreground, or it will wander, or never even lock in at all! Hate and despise it! :p [/QUOTE]
