 Hi Eric, Thanks for the advice. Being that I wanted acceptable photos to give this young man I let the camera do the work until I have some time to practice. Having always been a manual shooter in my film days I think the transition should be fairly easy.

I have experimented with manual mode with auto ISO with good results. I just need some quality time to spend with this rig then look at the results. Hone my craft so to speak. I hope to get down to the marina this weekend and burn some memory. Maybe take some pet portraits of the girlfriend's cats.

I'm sure I will get used to the viewfinder crop. With such large images cropping with software should not be an issue if I'm out a bit too far. Again, thanks for the input.
