    direct setup for basic stuff in manual mode on Canon 7D

    Hi,
    I'm not sure if here is the best section or if it's the Canon gear section.
    Mods, please move if you think it's best elsewhere.

    In the aperture priority mode, is there a way to set stuff like a minimal shutter speed (just like there is a max auto ISO) ?
    It kind of annoys me when it sometimes (inconsistently) doesn't bump the ISO up enough, and as a consequences makes very long shutter speeds. Av mode has already done a weird thing such as f/2.0 , ISO400, 1/13sec. ?? This doesn't make sense. On other times it will bump the ISO up ...

    I'm also trying to figure out a fast way to set AF modes... Still reading the documentation, its pretty poor.
    It would be so easy if the joystick could just control what AF point I'm using ...

    Firmware is 1.25 and I have reset all the settings to be sure I had nothing messed up.
