Common digital camera scene modes
Scene modes are factory optimized, pre-programmed exposure modes helpful to those who don’t want to fuss with camera settings.
Panorama mode
Panorama mode allows you to create a single, wide vista photo by “stitching” a series of single shots taken with a digital camera.
Movie mode
Some digital cameras record video that approaches the quality of a dedicated camcorder and even capture video in high definition.
Image Stabilization modes

Face recognition mode
Digital camera Face Recognition mode detects faces in a scene. It automatically focuses and optimizes exposure for the faces.
Burst mode
Continuous shooting mode, also known as burst mode, allows you to shoot images continuously in rapid succession.
What is shutter speed?
The shutter controls the length of time light hits the camera sensor. Slow shutter speeds capture the feeling of movement, while fast shutter speeds freeze movement.
Aperture
The aperture controls the amount of light that reaches the camera sensor, acting much like the pupil of an eye that widens or decreases in size as the intensity of light changes.
