Creative Photography: Choosing a Mode
Although auto mode, with its range of menu options and camera settings, is suited to
almost any situation, some common compositions, such as portraits or landscapes,
require special combinations of settings that apply to any scene of the same type .
Rather than adjusting settings one-by-one to suit the composition, you can simply
choose the appropriate scene using the mode dial and let the camera adjust settings
automatically to produce the best possible results.
