Word. I've been shooting professionally for over 30 years. Cameras were fully manual. Focusing--manual. Aperture--manual. 5 fps was cutting edge for pros. The first auto-exposure camera was a miracle. Carried different film speeds in various pockets--200 speed, 400 speed, 800 speed, 1600 speed. Rewinding and reloading different rolls of film as the light died during sporting events and hoping I didn't mix the exposed up with the unexposed film. When shooting slides, carried tungsten and daylight balanced--and a super-fast, grainy daylight slide film was 400 speed.
Young whippersnappers don't know how good they have it. I used to eat cold gravel for breakfast and like it. Walked uphill ten miles to school--both ways! Barefoot. On ice.
