Hi all, I have been thinking about shooting wildlife as I have been out there taking pictures. I have been shooting aperture priority and auto as well as manual and auto focus. My question is, would there be an advantage to shooting manual when using an inexpensive consumer lens? The reason I ask is because when in the auto mode on 99.9% the settings would be what I would use in manual due to the sweet spot of my consumer lens. I do shoot manual often when I use my M 50mm f/1.4, but outdoors on a sunny day I would shoot my zooms between f/8-11, 1/500 or a faster, and ISO 400 even in manual mode.
