[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by aquadan005 I just absolutely love having COMPLETE control over every aspect of my photos with it. I have four different lenses for it. All my other cameras have only the lens it came with. Call me old fashioned but I think I'll be taking color print photos til the day I die. [/quote] Your statement infers that you cannot take total manual control of a digital camera, which is incorrect. With my Canon Rebel XT I can set it to M for manual, and set the aperture and shutter speeds. I can also use my six autofocus lenses on manual focus with the flick of switch. I can use manual, but don't need to very often. I find using either AV - Aperture Value to TV - Time Value, I can get whatever I want in my photos. AV for depth of field in model photos, TV for action shots. Most of the time when shooting outdoors, I just leave it on Auto and the cameras' choices of shutter speeds and apertures that are visible in the viewfinder are just as I would have selected. I can then concentrate more on getting the action and composition. It's sort of like driving a car with a manual transmission - it's nice to shift gears at times, but when you just want to get somewhere, the automatic transmission is less intrusive. Bob Boudreau
