THE BEGINNER'S GUIDE TO CAMERA SETTINGS

So today, we'll cover how to use camera modes properly and how each one can make your photos better.

CAMERA MODES

Automatic mode means your camera will automatically choose the optimum shutter speed, and flash settings at the time of shooting the picture.

AUTOMATIC OR PROGRAM MODE

The three pieces that make up the triangle are aperture, shutter speed and ISO.

THE EXPOSURE TRIANGLE

In this mode, you set the shutter speed, aperture and ISO setting before taking a photo. This mode gives you the most creative freedom.

MANUAL MODE

APERTURE PRIORITY MODE

A big benefit to this mode is that it can allow for taking pictures in low light without a tripod.

SHUTTER PRIORITY MODE

Remember that creation and art are forms of expression and using different camera modes can give you more tools to expressing yourself!
