Being told about it isn't going to do it. I've waxed lyrical about it on the lug for two years; I don't expect that to do it. People have to try it their selves first. If shooting at f8 at 125th on both the sunny as well as the shady side of the street; high noon as well as the end of the day sounds like it might appeal to you than for sure give it a shot. And I'd give it a shot even if it didn't! I wish I could reshot my trip out here with the west coast with it. Wish I could go back in time. Re shot a few other shoots with it too. They'd look much better. As they'd be shot with much lower ISO's. mark@rabinergroup.com Mark William Rabiner > From: Nathan Wajsman <photo@frozenlight.eu> > Reply-To: Leica Users Group <lug@leica-users.org> > Date: Fri, 19 Sep 2008 08:30:41 +0200 > To: Leica Users Group <lug@leica-users.org> > Subject: Re: [Leica] M8 Auto ISO instruction > > Sorry to ask a dumb question, but why is auto ISO a big deal? > > I cannot think of any situation where I would not want to control the > ISO myself.
