[QUOTE="southwestsam, post: 251164, member: 15810"] Why not practice by using Aperture priority and seeing what settings the camera chooses in a given situation before jumping straight into Manual mode? I used Manual from the minute I got my camera, and it took me longer to understand how to get a correct exposure than if I had let the camera do half the work and then copy it. Having said that, I have a better understanding than I would have done because of it. What you need to appreciate is that it will take you a LOT longer to learn how to get pictures you are completely happy with than it would with a point and shoot - but the results when you get there are so much better!
