That was a good article. The times are a changin' and they always will. I wouldn't be surprised if cameras didn't come with a setting that not only would bracket your exposure but also include an image made on auto. Just to be sure.

That's when it's imperative to know what you are doing in order to get the shot.
Sorry, couldn't resist. Shoot, learn and share. It will make you a better photographer.
