I know a man who is one of Canon's sponsored photographers. I also know his 
assistant. I once asked his assistant how does he set his cameras when 
shooting, does he use all those special custom settings? Answer? No, he 
shoots all on manual. Just like he did on film.<<<

Hi Bill,
Heck I'd do that at the drop of a hat! To me so much of all this new fangled
doo dads are merely money makers for the manufactures! And to make people
who buy the stuff believe they're "brilliant photographers!"  ergo?  Buy
more all auto bits and pieces and the profits go up!

When I use my M8 I set the ASA and set the camera on "AUTO" And shoot away
to my hearts delight at the motivating objects / people with nary a thought
about gear and only what is before me in the M8 view finder.

It's use the gear in the fashion one always has and KISS! Sure makes lif
much easier wih the least amount of "gear stuff confusion!"

ccheers,
ted
