Herb: That's not a good thing. You are either happy with shots that could have been better if tweaked a little, or, more likely, you are only taking shots of subjects in average light that turn out perfect in automatic mode. I know that evaluative metering these days is exceptional, but it's not perfect. And bracketing everything is not only expensive but you never really force yourself into learning proper exposure. Don't get me wrong, if you're happy that's great, but I think you should experiment a little to push yourself and the camera to greater heights..
