Auto or manual?

Assalamualaikum,

Some tips for taking photo better photos of your garden for digital camera users.  

do you like this photo more?

I think many of us are nowadays have digital camera, most we like to use auto program most of the time. Maybe we found that auto is much easier and we don't know much about other camera functions or settings. so most of the time let the auto program to decides the best settings for us.

or this one more?

I didn't realised about this before (since long time i didnt have digital camera after the last lost one stolen),somehow when i have this new sony cybershot and started to take lots of photos from garden, then in the beginning i realised that by choosing auto program the result wasn't that good, the colour look dull, and most of the you won't get the real colour of your subject.




                                                          This one looks better?

                                                                  Or this one?

   
So the to get the best photo with your digital camera is to choose manual program, try different setting that available, use the exposure setting to darken or lighten photo based on the condition. take a few photos of the same subject and compare.

Once you got the right setting and understood it, you wouldn't use auto program anymore, believe me!
