It can be intimidating.  My menu settings are pretty simple, since I use 
raw for everything.  If I understand correctly, then none of the 
sharpness or white balance settings are operative, which is what I 
prefer.  I do know where mirror lockup is.  I use aperture priority for 
the DOF I want, adjust the ISO speed  for a reasonable shutter speed if 
needed, and set the focus area appropriately.  Sometimes I will adjust 
exposure comp after checking the histogram.   It takes less time to do 
than to say.
