Here is what most people should do:
Use aperture priority and avoid using the biggest aperture with the smallest number unless you have a good reason.
Take off the viewfinder and put a black line through the outermost region of the focusing screen so your images won't be partly cropped out by the lab.
Set the camera to overexpose images by 1/3 of a stop. I would go 1/2 if that was available. Persoanlly, I would use 2/3 of a stop but men in black suits would be quite overexposed. It has the worlds best metering system but will underexpose a lot more than overexpose.
This camera has blinding speed and incredible focusing abilities....it will focus in the dark and lightning fast.
Everything is very cool with the alterations I suggested for most people.
Yea........I know we are talking basic stuff but I believe that ignoring the basics causes 90% of errors.
Oh yea.............don't use Kodak Max 800. I'm still looking for a school group I can give a number of rolls to.
