What does everyone have their program line set at, and why? How often (if ever) do you change your Program Line? Any best practices out there?
To anyone who's new, I'll share what I myself just learned tonight (p 145 in manual), and what prompted me to ask:
The Program Line is set in the Custom Settings Menu. It's used to "prioritize" when in Green or P modes. In those modes, the camera is doing some thinking for you, so you are telling it how to prioritize things .. here are the options:
>
Normal ..normal basic exposure
>
Hi Speed...Prioritizes high shutter speeds
>
Depth...Prioritizes lower aperture
>
MTF...prioritizes aperture setting according to the lens being used (only some lenses, see manual for specifics)
To me, this seems that it can make a significant difference in P mode .. but it also seems a lot to remember to go in and change it.
