Snapshot Shooting in Full Auto Mode
The Rebel T1i has full autofocus and autoexposure features that can make all
of the necessary photographic decisions for most situations. When in Full Auto
mode, all you have to do is frame the shot and press the shutter button, and
the camera will automatically figure out just about every other relevant setting.
However, you need to know a few things to get the most out of Full Auto mode.
On the top of the T1i, on the right side of the camera, is a Mode dial. The mode
you choose determines which functions the camera will perform automatically
and which will be left up to you. So, if you want more creative control, then you’ll
want to select a mode that offers less automation and leaves more power in your
hands.
For snapshot shooting, Full Auto mode will be your best bet and will make your
T1i function much like a simple point-and-shoot camera—but one that delivers
the superior image quality of an SLR. To select Full Auto mode, set the Mode dial
to the green box ( ).
The 18–55mm lens kit includes an autofocus switch, and most other lenses will
have a similar switch. Make certain it’s set to AF.
If you haven’t done so already, take the lens cap off the camera. You don’t have
to worry about accidentally shooting with it on, because if the lens cap is on, you
won’t see anything in the viewfinder. Make sure the switch on the lens is set to
Autofocus, not Manual.
