I recently purchased a Canon EOS 5D and decided to write a manual. This forces me to fully explore all options without any preconceived ideas.
In this context, I have now come to a conclusion on which I am very keen to get input from more knowledgeable users of the 5D.
The 5D has several shooting modes including P for Program AE, Tv for Shutter priority and Av for Aperture priority. However, in exploring these three modes I have come to the conclusion that - while they explain a specific 'focus (ie have a stated bias)' - there is no difference in what they actually enable me to do. Each offers the same options to decrease exposure time (with the camera increasing aperture) or increase exposure time (with the camera decreasing aperture). In each of the three modes, my interaction is by the same means of using the Quick Control Dial and has exactly the same effect on what the camera does - which is shift between the shutter speed and aperture of the lens.
Am I correct in this perception or am I missing something?
