[QUOTE="ladytonya, post: 175138, member: 15287"] No, don't stop! I love threads like this. While some of the language is still Greek to me as a total newb, it has still explained all the various modes way better than the user manual. I looked at the books that were suggested and they just seem way over my head at this point. LOL! I did buy one book that was particular to my camera model that I have seen recommended around here and reading this thread combined with going back and reading the chapters on each mode have made me want to go try some shooting in A and S. I have used mostly just Auto and played around in the Guide. I have actually found the Guide to be pretty helpful and it does a fair job of explaining A vs. S vs. P vs. M. For me, only having had the camera for right at a month now, I don't feel at all ready to even attempt to shoot in manual mode! Anyway, don't save your keystrokes, they may not be helping the OP but they could be helpings others besides myself who are new to the DSLR world. [/QUOTE]
