> So I've been reading the manual for the new Sony A700 (Very nice camera > btw, unlike the unimpressive A100) and noticed that it has PA and PS > Program shift modes, which are for all intents and purposes HyperProgram. > Turning the aperture dial drops the camera into Av mode, and the shutter > dial to Tv mode. It does lack the green button program-line reset however. > The first time I saw program shift was on the Minolta Maxxum 7000, circa 1984, it's hardly a Pentax invention or Pentax exclusive, no matter what the marketing mandarins would have you believe. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
