Photo Tip for after the shoot - O'Reilly Digital Media Blog:

I turned on the camera and saw that it was already in Av mode and it was already wide open. So, of course I started shooting. I was getting amazing shutter speeds, up to about 1/2500 … I was amazed.

So to make a long story short (too late, I know) I shot for about half the day in Av mode with my ISO still set to 1600 from several nights ago! I never even thought to check my ISO, my brain was so into the sports shooting mode that I forgot the camera and concentrated on the action.

So to prevent this from ever happening again I’ve made a rule for myself.

A very useful habit to get into.
