I use manual 100% of the time both in the studio and outside. If I'm speed shooting sporting events, I will use AI Servo autofocus, but everything else remains manual.

I have occasionally used full manual. I would put it at significantly less than 1% of the shots.

Aye - always. I've been shooting manual so long - since about 1960 - I really don't know how to use the programs.

Maybe the question should be posed as "Do you ever use automatic settings (Save light metering)? I suspect the majority of readers on this forum at least use manual periodically. Question is - how many always use manual settings?

I normally use aperture priority, but often use manual as well.

Okay, just out of curiosity let's see if most people use full manual.

If you use full manual at any time, yes, that means even on occasion, please say Aye!

If you never use full manual please say Nay!

I guess since I'm the lucky (or is that dumb) one to ask this question I guess I get to do the counting.

Ready, set, go!


By your standards the only thing I use EVERY occasion I shoot is the power switch. EYE to your pole.

Aye. But a minority of the time. Ap priority is my most used.
