Automatic Mode: fully automated and the user has no control; auto flash; slowest shutter speed is 1/60

Portrait Mode: priority given to largest aperture; gives a smaller depth of field so the subject is most in focus

Landscape Mode: priority given to smallest aperture; gives a larger depth of field so all the subject is in focus; may use a slower shutter speed; no auto flash; opposite of the portrait mode

Macro Mode: priority given to faster shutter speed; similar to portrait mode in that it has a large aperture; used to shoot flowers and other small objects
