P most of the time, as I use front and rear gears to adjust aperture and speed.

Aperture priority if my lenses allow it; manual if they won't.

70% M
30% TAv
no, it's not the same as P, as *I've* then set the specs - for example because I know I'm shooting cars or horses - and then the ISO gets set appropriately. It simply rocks, as it's a case of "1/500 and f/8 is close" and with -0.3EV I rarely get blown highlights, with shadows full of rich details. And on a K5 my ISO range is set to go up to 3200

M 99%
I've never used TAv, Sv, Tv, P and the green mode.
Sometimes i've used the Av mode though but M mode is easier for post processing.

Do you mean post processing. If so, how does any camera mode affect PP?

It was Av all the time, but mostly TAv now unless it is bright, on a tripod or shooting at F1.4 then back to Av. Oh and yes, P when I am shooting with my flashgun.
The K-5 is perfect to use with the TAv mode, you can forget whether the ISO is too high, such is the monster ISO performance

With Manual the exposure don't vary that much so you can sometimes edit several photos at once (batch process).
With some luck i can shorten the time it takes to edit to 1/10.
