    Depend on situation. Night shots mostly manual, other times when there is enough lights AV.

    ''Professional'' (the word between Quotation marks because i'm not near so good as i wanna be.) i useManual only.
    Bat that doesn't mean i'm 'allergic' for the automatic mode or any other mode for that matter.
    I gues you just get use to doing wat suits you best and depending on circumstances why make it difficult?

    Manual for me, I struggled to get the hang of it at first, but now I don't even think about it. The more photos I took, the easier it got & I like the control it gives me. I will admit though that I am often guilty of forgetting the ISO factor & having the odd "camera shake" shot that could have been avoided....

    It would be interesting, but impossible, to do a survey of the time spent in PP by the Manual Moders and and the AP/SP shooters added to the time shooting the image, and then also comparing the results with the same eyes.

    It's the pop-up toaster for me if available.
    Sony DSCR1 bridge camera; Sony Alpha SLT A57; Sony Zeiss 16-80mm f3.5-4.5 lens; Sigma 10-20mm UWA lens; converted Nikon 50mm f2.0 lens; Filters: ND4,ND8,ND1000, CP; Photoshop CS6. 82.7% of statistics are made up!

    The question is not how much time you spend doing anything. The question is what mode do you use the most (ie generally what do you set your camera to when taking photos)

    Constructive Critique of my photographs is always appreciated
