Hey Wendy,

I was using (mostly) aperture priority wide open, except when my MZ-S
trained finger turned the wrong wheel.  I'm not sure, but the lighting
appeared to be tungsten.  I used the manual white balance though and set it
using a white cardboard insert from a candy bar to set the white balance to
the ambient light.  I was delighted with the results of that.

Bill
