Some of the shooting modes on your camera will probably include auto, Aperture priority (A), Manual (M), Shutter priority (S), Programmed Auto (P), macro (close-up), sports, landscape, portrait, and night portrait.
Most people are comfortable shooting in auto, but don't always get the photo to turn out as they like. So, next time you're taking a photo, try using one of these modes:
**Macro-any really close up photos you're doing. Often a good idea to use a tripod and a shutter release or the timer on the camera to avoid any blur on the photo. Check your manual to see how close you can get.
**Sports-great for shooting all the action at sports events.
**Landscape-used for shooting outdoors when capturing a landscape. Great for any outdoor scenery really!
**Portrait-for doing portraits of people. I could see this working great for product photos too as the product is your models.
**Night portrait-used for low lighting portraits.
