Interesting. My experience is slightly different. There are 2 user settings on the main top dial (C1 and C2) and global camera settings can be concreted to these to settings. Hence, my C1 setting is mono, high ISO, high contrast, high everything for that gritty street look. C2 is mono, low ISO, high quality for landscapes and suchlike. For colour I just turn to either Program or Aperture priority.... The menus are quite easy to understand and cycle through - but that said I am used to the Fuji way - and now the Oly way as well, which isn't hugely different. What I like to do is customise the external buttons and dials as much as possible so I can quickly switch between settings without having to scroll thru menus.... -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ Broadcast, Corporate, || (O) | Web Video Production ---------- <www.seeingeye.tv> _____________________________ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
