Thank you Phillip. I did find the brochure on line. Curiously, it does not go into the detail on the settings provided by some of the others here. The focus seems to be more on the gee whiz tech stuff that allows you to save multiple copies and the like.
Certainly nothing along the lines of remembering to shoot the builder name or getting candid shots of fellow visitors. I hope the lighting in the Museum will be pretty good. For those of you not familiar, the Museum of Arts and Design is in the remodeled Durell Building on the Columbus Circle. While the remodel was somewhat controversial, I have read good things about the final product. Should be fun to see the building and the bike exhibit.
