Frogspawn Macro Photo - Updated with ANOTHER New Shot

I think he means programed auto (P) which allows you to set up all your parameters manually but selects both shutter speed and aperture. Not really ideal plus you're already shooting in aperture priority which allows all the same parameters to be setup manually with the addition of aperture.

I think it was just a little miscommunication regarding what was ment by setting the exposure compensation. It's not that it couldn't be set just that you don't have the bar on your top LCD, right?

And yes the F number range is a feature of the lens.
