Maybe try restating your question. Your syntax seems a little off.

I'm hoping they buy me that handycam that can see in .02 Lux at 200db then I can forget about F-stops

I'm usually so close to my subjects that I don't think about DOF characteristics. I try and keep my exposure near the middle of the range, so that I'm not screwing with the filter wheel to get f-this or f-that.
Your question seems more for people who use fixed aperture lenses, not us. It's like asking if I prefer the REC button on the lens grip, or on the camera body. Whatever works for a particular situation.
Howzaboot a harder question, like:
Will the move to disc- and RAM-based
cameras have any environmental effect
on our planet?
OR:
Would Side Letter Eleven be better art if
created with a broader color palette
and higher resolution graphics?
Tawlk amongst yaselves. Discuss.

I believe it depend on the situation. You will set your f stop differently for each one.
“I'm not sure if you're asking a serious question, but there's a huge difference in discussing filter wheels and f-stopsâ€
Yes I am asking a serious question and I know there’s a huge difference between filter wheels and f-stops. That’s why I wont to discuss it. I just wont to know which one (or two) f-stops you prefer to shoot with on a daily basis, like to shoot a site down interview or a stand up or what ever…. its really strange to me because it sound like a lot of you have never learned about this.
I think getting the right exposure is one of the most important things to do when setting up a shot. For example if your shooting a sit down interview with some one in doors with no lights and the picture in your view finder is to dark and it says “open†than you put up a light or turn the filter so the says 5.8 or some other number, other than open…it dues not really matter if you use auto or manual. Are you still confused?
