lol ... Stick with an MX then. And leave the battery at home... ;-)
Or just set the DS into Manual exposure mode, turn off Image Review,
and use your hand held meter and your eye. Unless you actually want
to learn how to use the features provided, that is.

My list:
Use a lot --
Multisegment metering and program (or Hyper Program, depending on the
camera) for grabbing shots quickly
Exposure compensation (especially with the digitals, to reproduce
low-light scenes as darker than average)
Spotmeter and Centre-weighted metering for those trickier metering
situations
Av mode
Less often --
Autobracketing
Tv mode
TTL flash
Autofocus
Rarely --
Autoexposure lock (prefer manual exposure in those situations
because it
has no time limit)
Mirror lockup
Self timer for reasons other than mirror prefire
Even more rarely --
Multiple exposure
Never so far in spite of having three or four cameras that can do
it --
Intervalometer
