Ah-ha!
Dear Mike,
Thank you so much for your post and the helpful information. I have pushed down the shutter release button half-way to 'hold' settings on my still camera but wasn't aware that I could do the same thing on my digital camera. And it's been so long I don't even remember what settings I was trying to 'hold' or capture with the still camera. I will have to see if I can get that to work.
I probably need to get some kind of metering device, if nothing else it would help me understand why when I look through the lens and see light, but then when I load the digital photos on the computer, they're dark. Well, it might not help me to understand it, but at least I won't be surprised by my dark images.
Mike, thank you again for helping me out with this. You have such a vast amount of knowledge when it comes to photography (obvious in your reference photos and all the help you give on this forum) that you have saved me untold amounts of time.
We're leaving town tomorrow but the first thing I will do when we get back is try out your suggestions. I'm glad I saw your post before I left and was able to answer so you wouldn't think your help went unappreciated.
Joan
