Hi,
This is for DSLR shooters. We have more options than were ever possible in the days of film (or, as my neighbor John called it, "fillum").
I use a Pentax K10D (a near dinosaur ) and recently I've been playing with the mode called "TAV". This mode lets me select shutter speed and aperture and the camera selects the correct ISO. With the Pentax you can assign a range of ISOs to be considered "automatic". It's sort of like "pushing" film, only it happens on a frame-by-frame basis, and it's automatic.
Here is a pretty good example of the kind of result that's possible. This shot was made with shutter speed 1/1250 sec, aperture f5.6 and ISO 1250.
Plenty of speed to freeze old Claude in midair and just a touch of Neat Image (love that program ) and you can get a pretty decent shot.
This is a great mode for action, obviously. I suppose that most DSLRs have something equivalent.
Have fun,
Steve
