The way I see it as a end user using my simple logic is, if I “read” a thread it should be marked as “read” if I don’t it should stay as “unread”, unless I decide to mark it as "read" regardless of how I use my Laptop’s or Desktop PC’s .
I agree wholeheartedly. That's my logic also.

You would never know what was new, just what you hadn't read.
Exactly! I would like to know what I haven't read, not necessarily what is new since last visit. I can always click Mark All As Read when finished with a topic.

Oops! Somebody just removed the bookmark in the book (i.e. PU Forum) I was reading! Good analogy, Unlocker.

Well, I was reading the Forum on my laptop and had quite a few Unread marks un the list. Then, just as a test, I logged in on my office computer as well. All the Unread marks disappeared. Most disappointing!

Perhaps somebody could explain to me how these marks are supposed to work?

As a rough guideline what speeds would you suggest the SR becomes unnecessary?
The old rule of thumb is to use a shutter speed equal or faster than 1/focal length. E.g. for a 50mm lens use 1/50 s or faster.

What du you mean by "a long time", John?

And do you leave the computers on through the night? I always switch off all electronic equipment at bedtime. Any electronic gadget is a potential fire hazard, even when set to standby (e.g the TV set).

This means that any entries I didn't manage to read before going to sleep will appear the next day as already read.

.

Several reasons, one being that I use different PCs at work and at home, second that it has always been good practice to log out when leaving a site.

I have to agree with Tom, it is annoying that the marking disappears when logging out. Items should be kept as not read until you actually click on them.

No, Stefan, That's correct. But for normal flash photography 1/180 s is as good a speed as any. The flash duration of 1/1000 s or less will be the dominant exposure factor anyway.

Fill flash is a different case, where you might want better control than the +1-3 EV you can dial in on the flash.

Thanks, Cayman. Didn't think of using the X mode. Perfect.
