Excellent advice.Solstar wrote: Photobod set you in the right direction. I might add, as you look through the viewfinder in each mode try rotating the wheel and watch what happens to the values as you change a setting. It's particularly important to watch the exposure setting as you change each or both variables. Try taking a series of pictures of the same thing changing on variable at a time. All the information for each shot is stored so you can go back and see what you changed and how it affected the result.
It is fun to do that with many setting. I did the one with white balance setting in the snow (albums) and to was revealing.
Shoot, learn and share. It will make you a better photographer.
