On the DL, my procedure for metering and using an "A*" lens:
- Set M mode - Frame picture (make attempt at composition) - Pick aperture (choose how much pudding around subject :-) - Stop down with DOF preview and hold - Adjust wheel to appropriate exposure (indicated by 0.0 in finder). - (still holding DOF preview) Hit AE-L - Relax (finally release DOF previe- start physical therapy on thumb) - Trigger shutter (subject has left the area). Am I missing a short cut? TIA, -Ryan
