I've looked at the booklet but can't figure out most of it so don't bother with it now. I guess i'm a bit long in the tooth for new gadgets Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A.dep. is automatic.depth of field. these settings are on my canon.350D. Rebel xt. and should be the same as far as i'm aware. hope this helps.cs Quote Link to post Share on other sites
