Fiddling is fiddling. Dialing is dialing. No matter which dial you use
either on the DMR or the Canon - You're doing the same thing - and the
software is doing the rest.

It's one dial ted - same as the other one. Only difference - one calls
it ASA - which it ain't. ASA is a throw back from film and has no other
meaning except to old film heads - they could just as easily say: slow,
fast, faster, real fast, ultra fast.
