The camera can select the auto focus points, but it cannot always anticipate correctly. Learn all AF modes Most cameras come with different auto focus modes like One-shot AF, Servo AF, and AI Auto focus. The camera will vary the exposure settings in aperture priority mode depending on the set’s aperture value. The shutter priority mode works just like aperture priority, in the sense that it gives complete control over shutter speed while making all the other settings automatically, according to the selected value. Fast-moving subjects can be shot in this mode, but it is also beneficial for low light situations where the shutter speed will be slower than what might be used to shoot handheld. Often comes from using a shutter speed that is too slow for holding the camera in hands. Manual White Balance All digital cameras have a few white balance presets. While they can do a reasonably decent job, we recommend learning to set white balance manually, according to each lighting situation. Drive Modes This is not a significant setting, but never know when to drive mode. There are three metering modes in most cameras, each with a specific job. The best way to master metering modes is to start by reading the camera manual. Manual exposure The last stage of learning how to use a camera’s settings is full manual control.
