iso with film is a pretty simple concept. lower iso film is less sensitive to light, higher iso is more sensitive to light. shooting in daylight requires 100 iso, cloudy/sun is more like 400 iso and night shots are 1600 iso, as an example. of course, no matter which you pick, it has to be balance with your shutter/aperture to get the right amount of light and using higher iso results in more grainy images, so its a balancing act.
if you've worked with a digital camera and its ISO, its really the same except with film you obviously can't change it for every shot, you have to shoot a whole roll of it.

the wheel should be set to match whatever film you are using so the sensor on the camera knows what film you've loaded.
you can set it differently, but its meant to be set to match. some deeper research would probably reveal some artistic reason for mismatching, but I dont know what it is.
as far as autofocus goes, i would guess that its like most cameras that when you're in auto it focuses on whatever the camera guesses is best, or on some point (such as the center). consult your manual or the internets.

Anyways, I'll be the first to say, LEARN HOW TO SHOOT MANUAL! I told myself to never use auto when I bought this camera, and so far it's worked out great. I haven't shot one picture in auto, all have been manual or on aperture priority. Practice makes perfect... if there is such a thing.
You got me to take my Cyber-Shot off of easy mode. It takes pretty good pictures without me knowing anything. I am starting to play with the options.

Finally got my pictures developed from memorial weekend in Door County. There are also a few from a roll I took hanging out with TJ sometime last year. They'r not the best, but they were all taken with my 1981 Minolta Hi Matic AF2. I need to learn more about ISO settings
