I have very large hands, but I haven't had any problems so far (except see below) - though I haven't tried with gloves on yet.
>>Go without gloves. You must suffer for your art. Does anyone know the dynamic range of the sensor compared with transparency film? >>The most common estimate I hear is 5-6 stops. I've installed the firmware upgrade (I held off on buying the *istD until I could use my non-A lenses) and this works well, although whether I'll always remember to press the green button is debatable. Am I right in thinking that if I use A-type lenses off 'A' I can only use them on M and also have to press the green button? >> A lenses don't need the green button as long as you keep them on the A setting. You can use P, Av, Tv, etc. . . . Another feature I'd like is the option for a histogram in the instant review - the Fuji S2 I use at work has this option and I find it very useful to glance at the LCD after I've taken the picture without having to enter review mode. >> This would be good. A Recent Luminous landscape article talked about the best exposure being the histogram pushed up against (but not off of) the highlight end of the scale. I'm trying to use the histogram more when I have the time. I apologize if these questions have already come up, but I only rarely find time to read more than a few postings to this list. >> Amen, brother. Sometimes it's like trying to take a drink from a fire hydrant.
