Camera re-setting

Hmm, you may have something there. I don't think it should be doing that but maybe it does. I suppose it could be resetting itself. But, on my samples above I started fresh with the second batch when I needed just a photo of my daughter. I turned the camera on and that's what I got. Maybe it's when the camera is turned off it resets, but other times I've gotten some nice photos then after a short break they're darker.

I think there must be something else that needs to be set manually, I just don't know what it is. Do you set an Fstop?

I need to know about that knob!

Thanks,
