Thanks for the links. Joe.. When I first got my Coolpix 995 a few years ago the the manual was simply overwhelming. With all the buttons and menu's. At the time I only used it for trips and family stuff so I looked for general settings that I could easily live with.. It's only been about a year and a half since I started to really enjoy taking photos.. During that time I've been trying to get better with Photoshop and a few other programs so I guess I was still using basic setting that would just let me concentrate on my shot.. Too much to learn and not enough time.. I think I'll go find that swan and spend the day just getting more familir with the camera.. Thanks Again
