For instance... this new camera has a mind of its own: if it thinks there are no conditions for taking the photo, it doesn't shoot. I went to a wedding this weekend and missed a few good shots because the camera refused to shoot. This is new to me: with film, I "computed" the settings in advance, then shot. The camera just obeyed me.
There is a "focus" setting in your menu which provides that the shutter will no work unless focus is achieved. You can turn this off so that you always get the shot even if the camera doesn't realize focus. Mine are set that way as the camera does not always know where *I* want focus to be.
I believe I don't have that setting. Instead there is a manual focus (I don't know how, yet). Or focus somewhere else and freeze it. But the subjects I missed were running: I needed fast adjusting, and lost the chance in a second. With my negative camera I would have chosen high speed film, high diafragm number, to increase depth of field, then focus on the area. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
