Best Answer

Manual Mode allows the photographer to set the Aperture, Shutter Speed and ISO. The camera will not change these settings while it remains in Manual Mode.

Automatic Mode tends to set proper exposures in most situations. Where Automatic Mode typically struggles is in very high contrast lighting. A dance recital, for example, might have brightly lit performers on very dark (unlit) backgrounds. Automatic Mode will often try to split the difference between the brightly lit performer and the dark background, resulting in an overexposed performer.

In this situation Manual Mode would allow the photographer to "dial-in" the correct exposure and keep it locked for the duration of the performance.

What does the program mode do on your digital camera?

It is bassically a kind of Auto mode but with some kind of flexibility and control over the settings. Here in this mode you can set certain settings like the colour mode, flash settings, exposure, ISO, etc. But the aperture settings and the shutter speed will be automatically taken by the camera. That's it. It's easier for amateurs to use the P (Program) mode than the M (Manual) mode to click with a little manual settings.
