Originally posted by zeuszen: The program and auto modes are synonymous, Shari. The green camera symbol on your mode dial indicates auto mode. You've used this mode, BTW, when you shot the macros in your portfolio. |
To clarify, it's more flexible than the automatic exposure (green camera on the dial) as in Program AE mode you can adjust EV values with the jog-dial. A good mode for snapshots, whereas the automatic exposure setting is really just designed for getting someone else to take some snapshots of you without them totally screwing up. |
