Well, there's that nice +/- button next right of the trigger on the 620 -
started using is on the ESII on to the Contax where it was ideally located -
left hand side of the body; the Leica Rs were a pain in that respect, and the
D700 is the most confusing of all. Only the L1 can be operated really
intuitively. But all of them work. So yes, Chuck is right, why go back to
manual?

If the camera can decide to do something unreasonable in aperture
priority mode and I can easily decide to switch back to manual to the
exposure that I deem correct because I just deliberately set it why did
I switch to aperture priority in the first place?
