Ooh, thanks for the encouragement. I can understand that frustration, and how wonderful it is when you've finally made the conversion. Keep going! Don't look back at your PC. Nothing but frustration there!

You hit the nail on the head; it's the theory that is driving me crazy. I don't want to know why Sunny-16 works, I just want to be able to do it. But you can't do it unless you understand it! I feel like I'm back in school. I will keep at it. Part of my resolve is that my sister got her bachelor's in photography and confided in me years ago that she never moved her film SLR off of auto, and I was a little shocked and taken aback, and told myself, "I want to really learn." But she concentrated on artwork, and did most of her work on the film itself with hand-painting techniques, etc. (This was in pre-digital days.) I am the type of personality that if I know something is out there to be learned, I try to learn absolutely everything I can, all at once.

Thanks so much.

Sarah
