Hey Folks, I'm now learning how to think "digitally" with my *ist-DS. The thing that perplexes me is setting the sensitivity. I'm used to shooting with Velvia since minimal grain and nice saturation are important to me. What sensitivity do people use? I'm no stranger to taking 15 second exposures to maximize my DOF in my botanical fieldwork, but I'm intrigued at the notion of cranking up the sensitivity on the camera to take big DOF images with a short exposure. Could it be that I don't have to worry about the wind anymore????? At what point would I expect to see noise? I don't see this addressed in the manual, except in broad terms.
Barry P.S. Please forgive me if I missed an obvious paragraph in the manual. I *do* read manuals carefully---let's just say I'm excited about this new camera! B Barry A.
