Understanding Camera Modes

Getting Started

Shooting Mode Overview

Your camera offers various modes designed for different shooting situations and levels of user control.

Common Modes Explained

Auto mode sets everything automatically. Program (P) mode selects aperture/shutter speed but allows other adjustments. Scene modes (e.g., Portrait, Landscape, Night) optimize settings for specific scenarios.

  • Start with Auto mode for simplicity.

  • Experiment with Scene modes for specific situations like portraits or landscapes.

  • Explore Program (P) or other semi-auto modes as you gain experience.
