[QUOTE="Sandpatch, post: 96710, member: 10543"] Can some of y'all help me to understand what our P Mode is exactly? I've read all I can about it, but I still don't understand just what it offers. I shot this photo with my D5100 last night in a very dark setting using P Mode with no idea of what I was doing. The photo is completly unedited, except for being resized for upload. I spun the Command Dial around and as best I could see, I was moving ISO a bit and nothing else. I purposely used no flash, metadata shows 1/30 Sec., f/4, f/22, ISO 2800, VR 18-55. [ATTACH=CONFIG]22399._xfImport[/ATTACH] Was this a lousy setting to play with P Mode? I took some similar shots using Shutter Priority (which I use a lot) and they look the same as with P Mode. Thank you for educating me on it all. :confused: [/QUOTE]
