Automatic Mode
Automatic mode makes the camera choose shutter speed, aperture, ISO, white balance, focus and flash for you. It will try to get the best shot it can and does not know what shot you want.
Portrait Mode
Portrait mode will automatically choose the largest aperture for you and keeps the background out of focus and focus on the thing you want. This mode is best used for one subject.
Macro Mode
macro mode will automatically focus the camera for you. Focusing at closer views might be harder for the camera to do.
Landscape Mode
Unlike portrait mode landscape mode it is a horizontal photo to take a photo of scenery. The shutter speed might get slowed down at times because of the small aperture.
Sports Mode
Sports mode is mainly for photographing moving subjects like a car, a dog, or a sport like tennis.
Night Mode
Night mode is used in taking pictures in places that are dark or like in the title night-time. The camera sets off a longer shutter speed and can set off a flash to light up something.
Movie Mode
The movie mode helps you for capturing still images into capturing moving images. Some new cameras with movie mode might record the video and sound.
Aperture Priority Mode
For this mode the camera captures things other than the Aperture because you have to choose the Aperture but it does choose the shutter speed and ISO for you
Shutter Priority Mode
Very much like Aperture Priority mode although the camera chooses the aperture and ISO but you have to choose the Shutter Speed.
Program Mode
Program mode is very similar to auto mode but does give you freedom to the flash, white balance, and the ISO
Manual Mode
In this mode you have full control because you choose the ISO, the Shutter speed, the Aperture, whether you want the flash, etc. This mode lets you make the photo however you want it.
What I learned about camera exposure and models was the Aperture, ISO and the Shutter Speed. The aperture controls the area of which light can enter the camera lens. The shutter speed determines how fast the shutter opens and closes for incoming light to enter to take a photo and how long it stays open. The ISO is how sensitive the camera is to light. Usually you want the ISO to be 0 so that it isn’t to bright or to dark.
