Just a question - I took a photography class in 'college' (yeah, my only class....lol)...rolls out more like a comment, but.....

Anyhows, one thing the instructor taught us was to take an 'auto' shot if we had an auto focus....then switch to manual and take a shot from 2 up and 2 down on the f-stops. Just to get some different perspective views. I did that at a construction site just looking for your basic 'geometric' shapes for a project I had to do (I did it all from develop and mat my own pix). Expensive hobby.

Anyhows...I'm digging the shots though. The overpass is sweet. :nod:

wayne, that's a bracketing assignment to bracket different exposure/f-stop combinations, as well as to see what the different apertures will look like with regards to depth of field. has nothing to do with manual focus/auto focus, and many point and shoot digital cameras will have manual settings for aperture, but the lens is so small that it doesn't actually change much as far as depth of field goes.

Just be careful who you trust. the "low price" on your site is talked about here

While prices are tempting, the hassles can be incredible. Most stores gave us an aggressive sales pitch for pricey accessories, charged excessive shipping-and-handling fees, and in some cases took weeks to issue refunds for stuff we returned.
