I have a Canon AL-1 and am considering purchasing a T-70. I kinda like the AL-1 with apreture pririty, because I can pick an f-stop for depth of field You also get to see what your camera sees, since the lenses actually stops down. Whith shutter priority, the lens is wide open until you actually press the shutter. Any comments? If anyone has an opinion on the T-70, I'd appreciate it, specifically, do all the automated Program modes get in the way or are they good to have? Marcel Simon ..!ihnp4!mhuxr!mfs
