[mostly sunny]

OMG-- Thank you so much!
I plan to try this out after work tomorrow.

I have been working on a second one for a little while now. I will post it up tomorrow as I am getting kind of too tired to keep typing, so in the sake of keeping it somewhat logical, I'll resume it tomorrow

Ummm, this is going to require some thought on my part. Since I am not allowed to work out for another day.. I will do this when I get home.. Oh HOMEWORK! Why am I super excited about this?

Great work.

Umm, on my camera I can't do this in Manual. It won't let me change the F stop.

What are all those other numbers in my view thingy, and on top of the camera- Don't answer.. I'll figure it out. For the moment, the camera has won. I am off to bed!

Well, I can't really say where things are on your 7D as I have never seen one (or messed with any Canon for that matter).
But I would be willing to bet you can change your f-stop in manual, along with everything else.

Maybe someone with more experience with Canon can help you out, if the manual isn't helping.

This thread is so helpful! I followed along with my camera and learned within several seconds that i have to get a tripod, like today! I've just been trying to keep my shutter speed at a handholdable speed, and it's just not working...and I think I missed the amazon sale from yesterday Apparently they had 25% off all photography accessories and I totally missed it. Thanks so much for posting this!!

Glad it helped.

BTW I just moved from the Oak Harbor area to San Diego, and I kinda miss it there

Ah, thought so We just got here and so far we LOVE it. 100 times better than Jax. Lots more interesting things to photograph! I can't wait for the tulips this spring. I'll be sure to post pics of that awesomeness!

Very interesting read, thank you. Learned a few things from it. Gonna read Part II next.
