I spend 80-90% of the time shooting in Av, the rest is usually in manual. When I shoot in Av mode like I normally do I adjust the aperture using my right index finger on the little wheel on the top by the shutter button. I adjust exposure compensation with the big thumb wheel dial on the back. I like this setup and I'm used to it.
The problem is when I then shoot in M mode the finger wheel dial now changes the shutter speed, and the thumb wheel changes the aperture. It gets me seriously every single time I go to change the aperture in M mode
I guess this arrangement would make sense if you spent most of your time shooting in Tv mode, where the finger wheel changes shutter speed. I was hoping there was a custom function to change it the other way around in M mode, but there doesn't appear to be.
