Yes Phil, agreed. I don't even know if the camera was set to apeture priority or shutter priority or what; I just took a couple of images to make sure the thing works. Now I have to sit down with the 'book of words' and figure out how to 'fly' it. Actually for the money, I'm thinking it is a prety good deal. I didn't buy it with Astro-imaging in mind, I need a good camera to record scenes that I might not ever revisit.

Cheers,
Doug
