Empty chairs at an empty home, lot to be developed.
The Pentax A3000 is working in Program mode, but is not metering properly in Aperture priority, with shutter speeds chosen being too slow, so overexposure and blur from hand shake. I'll buy some alkaline AA's, because all I had were NiMH, so it may be a voltage thing.
Program mode is fine, except everything is chosen by the camera, and it picks smaller apertures to have greater depth of field. I was using 400 speed film on my test, and most of my shots were around 1/60th, which I could see the camera choosing, so I think for aperture, it was selecting f/8-f/11. Exposures were fine, but I prefer to be around 1/125th just to prevent motion blur/hand shake.
