what is the best mode to use for everyday picture-taking?
like is it portrait, sports, party, high sensitivity etc?
Each of these different picture modes changes the settings of the camera so that they perform best under those conditions. For example, ‘sports’ mode will try to use a faster shutter speed to freeze fast action, but each one is also a compromise so ‘high sensitivity’ will allow you to take pictures in low light without flash, but may result in lwer quality ‘grainy’ pictures. As you learn about photography – these are the things that you start to understand – each shot is a compromise between shutter speed (freezing motion) aperture (contol of depth of field) and sensitivity (quality of image).
If you are in a hurry and can’t figure out which is best, then put the camera onto full auto – most of them will take a reasonable picture, but if you have the time it is work trying to learn about the different modes.
