+[* 1] Nearly every digital camera manufactured today is boxed up already set on an ***Auto*** function. Any DSLR should be switched off of Auto immediately, but to what?
+[* 1] Aperture priority (denoted by an ***A*** or ***Av***, depending on your camera's manufacturer) provides the best workflow when shooting photographs for guides. Additionally, you should set the ISO to the lowest possible value.
+ [* 10] "Aperture priority" means that you select the camera's aperture and it automatically adjusts the shutter speed in order to achieve the correct exposure. If you find your images are coming out too dark or too bright, you may adjust the exposure compensation (EV).
