DSLR: Digital Single‐Lens Reflex Camera.
One of the first and most important steps towards becoming a better photographer is to learn how to use your camera.
Full Automatic Mode ‐ Completely automatic photography; the camera analyzes the scene and tries to choose settings that will produce the best results
Auto Flash Off – Same as Full Auto, but with flash disabled.
Creative Auto – Similar to the Scene Intelligent Auto modes below, but give you a way to tweak some picture settings such as how much background blur.
Portrait Mode – Designed to produce softly focused backgrounds for flattering portraits.
Landscape Mode – Automatic scene mode that keeps both near and distant subjects in sharp focus and boosts color and contrast for dramatic landscape pictures. Flash is disabled. Usually a tripod is needed.
Sports Mode – Selects a fast shutter speed to capture moving subjects without blur. Flash is disabled.
Macro Mode – Close up scene mode that produces softly focused backgrounds especially suitable for close‐ups of flowers and other nature subjects.
Night Portrait Mode – Same as Portrait, but with flash mode set to Slow‐Sync, resulting in a slower shutter speed to produce softer lighting and brighter backgrounds.
