Does it allow manual control of exposure and white balance?

Not in Win7 or later. In WinXP you can control this.The cam itsself (as a piece of hardware) does not provide control handles.

Depending on the mode you select, nightime, landscape, etc, the shutter speed adjusts. I do not know if it can be manually changed.

Yes, it does by pressing the exposure compensation (top of the dial) twice and then select range up to +/- 1 EV.

All the early reviews so far have mentioned that they give you full Program, Aperture priority, Shutter priority, and Manual options when shooting video. They even let you use scene effect modes like monochrome while shooting video.So yes, manual controls for video are available. The only limitation I have heard with video (besides no audio-in jack) is that the in-camera Image Stabilization feature is disabled while shooting video. Using a lens that has it's own image stabilization works as expected though.

It's in the manual but the camera has a setting to override the dof focus etc. In that respect it's not really intuitive.

When using a white balance adjustment this will effect the entire photo. With this gell pack you can make a purple Ron light and a red hair light flag it and it won't effect the face or skin. You can in PS make layers and adjust to do the same thing but it looks some times fake and not as good as a real light and it takes a long time to make it look rite.

If I remember correctly I don't think you can. It's just the five or so presets you'll have to choose from. The newer models might be able to but, for now, you're just going to have to rely on post to get a real white balance.

you can adjust Blue vs. White intensity (from 0% to 100% output on each)... It's been a quite reliable system. I also like the gradual shifts from 'time presets' over the course of the day.

Yes, of course. However, for flash exposure compensation, bracketing, and manual mode can not be controlled via camera setting. Those need to be done directly on the flash. Please also check the links below. Hope my two pennies would be useful. http://www.canon.com/camera-museum/camera/dslr/data/2010-/2012_eos_kiss_x6i.html?lang=us&categ=crn&page=2010-&p=2 http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/eos_slr_camera_systems/flashes/speedlite_550ex

Nope. Panning and tilting is all manual. I keep mine on to of the monitor so it's right there for adjusting.

The switch is to use normal vibration reduction or an enhance vibration reduction. Do not use either of these for long exposures. Probably best at 30th of a second and faster.

Yeah, it works well. I have used it for overhead, vertical, and horizontal. So far the only complaint I have is the sensitivity settings. It almost works too fast.

Yes, it functions just like the controls on the camera itself but in a more ergonomic way if held vertical.

Yes... you push the button and slide it forward to have long exposures without having to hold the button down.

I think it depends on the software using it. If the software can control exposure and white balance sure. Other wise no. It is just a dumb camera. I use it for Skype only so far. I do not try to take video pictures with it.

you can do all of that in post-production( tweak til you like the look), - main thing is to white balance your camera before you shoot....

Depends on the camera. If you're useing ND filters and manually setting your stop then yes. But if the camera is auto setting the exposure then it's a really expensive useless peice of equipment.
