3. Manual vs Auto Exposure – Photography for Dummies

Don’t miss this.
Often, using automatic exposure can remove the atmosphere of the picture. For example, I took this picture taken on a very cloudy dark day, to capture the atmosphere and I lift my shutter speed, lower my ISO, and closed my aperture, to darken the image. This really gives the right mood for the picture, something that automatically would not give me. In addition to this though, automatic exposure is also only determines how bright or dark image should be based on one point. And this means that certain parts of the image will often be too dark or too light. This will usually happen with the sky, because it is usually lighter than soil.

Basically, automatic exposure may remove part of the artistic image.
