Question
Gah, this class is ridiculious, and the teacher arrogent as hell.

But regardless, I must suck it up or I won't be graduating on time and that's bad.

So. Do you know how, or know what direction to point me to in terms of figuring out how to manually set the aperature and shutter speed on a Sony Cybershot DSC-S40?

Thanks.

Answer
Dave,

Well, I've never seen one of these cameras.  I tried to do some research and could not find the steps necessary to get the camera into manual.  I did find a copy of the quick start guide on the net and while it did not mention "manual" mode, it did say that shooting modes should be under the "camera" menu.  The icon for that menu looks like a little camera.

Hope this helps.

John

Expertise

I can answer questions about point and shoots and 35mm SLR`s from the 1960s to present. I can also handle most questions on digital cameras from "camera" makers, like Nikon, Olympus, Canon, Sony, etc. Though usually I`m not too familiar with the driver interface, as 3rd party devices for download are more efficient. Sorry, but I can no longer answer questions about the value of old cameras.

Experience

I'm an "expert" under photography. I've many years experience in photo retail.John and Chris
