You can get the same creative control for the most part in aperture priority. Exposure compensation allows for that.

So you're suggesting that, instead of futzing with the aperture control, it's more convenient to futz with exposure compensation?
I don't think that makes any sense at all. On my camera exposure compensation is a pain to get to, to I never use it. Easier to stick to the basic triangle, thankyouverymuch.

What does futz mean? Is that a word? I'm weirded out that my computer's autocorrect recognizes that as an acceptable word.
...But not "weirded" (I guess that's just ... slang... errrrrrrr), or "autocorrect".
Anyway, in response to that comment, I agree. I don't understand how fiddling (heh, futzing... wtf) with both aperture and exposure compensation is better or more efficient than aperture and shutter speed. Hell, Nikon even gives you two dials so you can adjust both aperture and shutter speed separately but just as easily. How can you have that luxury and still think exposure compensation is worth wasting your time over just for the sake of saving time via aperture priority?
That's an oxymoron, that is.

Not so fast. I use shutter priority and program mode more that aperture. But aperture priority is a good place to be in strong light.

SN posted the definition, but I am going to add that, if you just go to Google's homepage and type in a word it will provide you a definition.
Google: evil and handy all at the same time.

Mine is right next to where you control aperture.
Unless you're shooting in a studio(or using a lot of flash in general) or doing pro sports, shooting in manual is like drinking water with a spoon instead of using a glass.

Shooting aperture priority is like drinking water out of a hose you can't turn off.
