Ditto,
I am getting to where I prefer to shoot everything in full manual mode, even shooting Birds In Flight. Once you get used to keeping one finger on the shutter button and a thumb on the dial to make exposure adjustments. Set the ISO and Aperture and then you can easily make exposure adjustments on the fly.





Bob, I see the noise your talking about in your picture, some of it looks like a side effect from sharpening. Did you do any sharpening to that picture in PP, or how is the Picture Style set up in camera?


On my monitor the white balance looks off. looks blue(cold)!


Otherwise the focus and DOF look great.
