Convenience? I'd rather turn a dial than go diving into a menu. Now, if you want to complain about have to do just that to turn SR on and off, I'm all ears. Why the need to go menu diving? When I'm setting any of my major settings (aperture, speed, or ISO), I want to be able to quickly scroll that wheel all the way in one direction, knowing that I will hit my min/max settings. Having Auto as an option, I'd have to worry about stopping on that at one end. No thanks.
