Aw shucks, now you're just being plain ol' silly... but thanks for the
compliment. I guess I know what I *want* the photos to look like, so I
know I've got some work to do.

Nope, didn't try that. Will definitely keep it in mind though. The worst
part about manually focusing was that my view finder got fogged up a
couple of times (my own hot air I suppose), so I was stuck firing the
camera and just hoping for the best.

> Why not shoot RAW?

Stupidity :o) I was also a little worried about card capacity, but I
didn't even fill my two in-camera cards, and I had two more on standby
inside each grip. So next time I'll shoot RAW. Lesson learned.

HAR!

> What ISO and F stop where you using?

ISO 800 @ about F4.5, which proved to be too shallow more often than not.
My shutter speed was usually around 1/40 or so.

Thanks again.
