Why is it that people try and tell themselves that you "Can't understand how pictures work" with digital. What's different? The sensor is a substitute for film, with slightly different characteristics and changable ISO. You still need to understand how light works, how the fstop effects the exposure etc. The fact that these cameras have an auto mode doesn't mean you have to use it, and using the cameras is "Not understanding light"
