Yes. >If so, does the same principle apply to automatically-controlled apertures >on cameras with Tv and P exposure modes? Good question. I'd assume so, mainly because it would require *more* work from the designers to limit the control mechanisms to just certain specific values. It's easier from an engineering standpoint to make these things continuously variable and it works better (potentially, at least) for the photographer, too. -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
