I learned that to use a camera effectively, start by turning it on and choosing a shooting mode that fits your needs Auto for beginners, Aperture Priority to control background blur, Shutter Priority to manage motion, or Manual for full control over aperture, shutter speed, and ISO. Set the autofocus mode depending on whether your subject is still or moving and adjust the white balance to match the lighting for accurate colors. use the metering mode to help the camera measure light correctly and pick a drive mode to decide if you want single shots, bursts, or self-timer. If your photos come out too bright or dark, apply exposure compensation to fine-tune brightness without changing other settings

What is aperture, shutter speed and ISO? The aperture is how big the lens opening is. The shutter speed is how long the camera takes the photo for. The ISO is how sensitive your camera is to light. When would you need to change your ISO? When it’s dark or too light, you need a faster shutter speed, you want the cleanest photo.

What is aperture and shutter priority settings? Aperture priority lets you choose how blurry or sharp the background is, and the camera sets the shutter speed. Shutter priority lets you choose how fast the photo is taken and the camera sets the aperture.

What are AF modes how do you change them? AF modes control how your camera focuses on an object. To change it press the mode and go into the AF settings.

Why does your need to meter the light to get the right exposure? To get the right exposure so your photo isn’t too bright or too dark.

What is the difference between a normal, wide angle and telephoto lens? A normal lens shows the scene naturally, like how your eyes see it. A wide-angle lens fits more into the frame, while a telephoto lens zooms in to make faraway subjects look closer.

What is white balance and why would you need to change it? White balance adjusts the colors in your photo so that whites look truly white. You change it to make sure the colors look natural under different types of light, like sunlight or indoor bulbs.

What is depth of field and what is the difference between shallow and good? Depth of field is how much of the photo is in sharp focus from front to back. A shallow depth of field means only a small part is in focus, while a deep depth of field means most or all of the image is sharp.

What are drive modes and metering modes? Drive modes control how many photos the camera takes when you press the shutter. Metering modes decide how the camera measures light in a scene to set the right exposure.

What is exposure compensation? Exposure compensation lets you take a photo brighter or darker than the camera’s automatic setting, helping you fix tricky lighting situations.
