I personally have never understood the need for automatic exposure settings of any nature and have used them only once or twice just to see if they really worked. IMO no auto setting can get the exposure as accurate as I can. I know what I want the subject to be and expose for it. Now I would like a higher sync speed, that would make my M6 even more used than it now is, but I really love the way it handels and the fact it is a fully manual camera. If you want automation this is not the camera for you. There are tons of automatic cameras, but only one M6. >Hey it's Monday morning, and it's no day to sound like a "Happy Camper" >who just >won a pile of money! :) So how much did you win....enough for a new Leicar? ;) Harrison McClary hmphoto@delphi.com http://people.delphi.com/hmphoto
