I forget to use flash-fill often; when I'm in brilliant light it's so easy to forget.

Like many others I have forgotten to ISO up or down or to reset it after one or the other. I also forget to check the background at times and still don't always think about composition as I should. All part of the learning process I guess.

Mine would be the ISO too. I made the mistake once of not having a card in the camera when I went to the Blue Angels Air Show (I still kick myself in the butt for that one) and I've never forgotten my card again.

Don't have a problem with ISO since I usually use the auto-ISO feature. WB balance is what always gets me.

Talking

I usually shoot in Auto as I am still learning.. but there are times when I forget stuff (am a bit absent minded ).. Here is the laundry list
  • SD card in my laptop
  • Lense cap on (wondering why I can't see anything hehe)
  • Preview mode (wondering why isn't the camera taking any pictures haha)
  • Battery in the charger and left home w/o one (Haven't felt the need to keep a spare one just yet as I don't do much photos too far away from my apartment)
  • Forget to turn on the flash when indoors (turned it off the previous day for some photos)
