Using program mode on your expensive camera, is it a good idea

Using program mode on an expensive camera can be a good idea, especially if you're looking for a balance between control and convenience. Program mode allows the camera to automatically select the optimal shutter speed and aperture for a given scene, while still giving you the flexibility to adjust other settings like ISO, white balance, and exposure compensation.



Here are some benefits of using program mode:

  • Quick and Easy: It saves time by automatically adjusting settings, which is great for capturing spontaneous moments.

  • Learning Tool: It's a good way to learn about the relationship between shutter speed and aperture without being overwhelmed by manual settings.

  • Flexibility: You can still make adjustments to other settings, giving you some creative control.




However, if you're looking to have full control over your camera settings and achieve specific creative effects, you might want to explore manual mode or other semi-automatic modes like aperture priority or shutter priority.
