I am now quite familiar with my DSLR (canon) and can almost get a resonable shot of most subjects.
But, I haven't been able to find any real reason for choosing manual mode ove the other two? Av / Tv.
The way I see it, on Tv mode, you set the shutter speed and the internal processor will adjust the aperture, to the correct value (depending on which metering mode you are using) to correctly expose the image. Av mode is the other way round.
On Manual mode, you have to adjust both values to correctly expose the image, and the only possibe way to ensure a good exposure (before you view it on the preview screen) is by placing the marker in the center of the exposure bar by adjusting correctly.
But this is exactly what the other two modes will do automatically!
By being creative with manual mode, am I correct in saying we cannot expect anything more than an over-exposed or under-exposed image?
Does anyone here only use 100% manual mode, if so . . why?
Thanks
