Heh, I was just using that mode to learn more about each changeable feasture. I don't want to get lazy and just switch it to auto mode, you know? I learn more when I do it that way than if I read the manual, although I use that also. I also purchased this book...
WOW you guys are great, thanks for all the awesome input.
And as for my manual/auto problem, it was the ISO. In auto it was set to auto, and in manual it was at 50. When I set the ISO to 200, it took pretty much the exact same shot!
So I just bought the Canon PS Pro 1 and I love it. I realize it's probably way to much camera for me right away, but I don't care I love photography and am having fun learning.
Anyway, I've been taking all my shots at 8MP and while they look great on the LCD screen on the camera when I look...
