I discovered Manual Mode. :)

I was always quite hesitant to use manual mode on my camera because it was too extreme: way too dark or way too light! Well I was just afraid to adjust it to such extremes.  I would continue turning my knob to about 500 shutter speed from 2500, and think I was being generous with the turns. WELL....as I found out, you need to crank that baby all the way! You can actually look at the settings from "A" mode (aperature) and do something similar in manual mode.  I have found that there's more ability to make weird light work instead of having the camera automatically try to compensate for what it thinks the adjustments need to be, which are usually too extreme!  I noticed that Jasmine Star regularly uses manual mode, so that's what inspired me to give it  a try!
