well, yes, of course, if you are sort of shooter you are, tina, who does it 
professionally and needs, absolutely NEEDS that correct combo right now, 
this 
instant!, and may not know what that combo is ahead of time, you not being 
psychic or anything. (try eating more carrots.)

I, on the other hand, do this for fun, never making a plug nickel at it. 

I wander, I life the camera, I point it at something, I click the shutter, 
serene in the knowledge that I am surrounded by an entire world population 
(6 
billion, give or take) not a single one of whom gives a rat's patoot how my 
images come out, only little old me, even my wife is too busy to more than 
glance 
("Oh, that's nice dear...") and I happen to like the challenge of figuring 
out 
how, with only a 21mm super angulon (f 4, LTM factory adapted to M-- the 
really extra special good model. Hey, I got it cheap.), for example, one 
will 
shoot this situation or that, as it presents itself. 

Sometimes pretty well, truth be told. Sometimes very badly. Sometimes we 
have 
to really lean on that old artistic license ("It's just the way I intended, 
really!") to justify the way we spent our day.

There is, of course, the occasional "damn! why did I leave the 50 (or 21!) 
at 
home" but those times are fleeting and only add to the alleged joy. With 
this 
sort of alleged mental state, one can see how choices would only confuse 
things.
