The past year with the D2H, i found Av to work the best(after a LOT of trial and
error<g>)With the IstD i
find myself 99% Av as well. For some reason,the D1 works well in Tv mode.Go
fiqure:-)
Even with the high shutter i like to use for horse jumping is not a problem in
Av,with
fast glass.I love the
iso change on the fly of digital.I use Matrix metering most of the time.In snow
i tend to
use CW and i look
at the histograms to make sure i''m in good expoisure range.If i'm doing
something with
tricky lighting like
sunsets or high shadow and highlights,i'll try CW or spot and then look at the
histo.
For the 6x7 even though it has the metered prism, i use the handheld and
combined PDML
knowledge
aquired in the past 3 years and go for it.:-)

Actually,both. Colour is all digital as far as 35mm goes. I use the 6x7 for B&W
and
slides. Stll cannot
beat a good fall colour slide <vbg>

I would say yes. Prior to, i used mostly Tv and has several bodies on the go
with iso 200
and 400,and
switched if the event went from sun to cloud,then back.
