Use Mode P If you are a beginner, don’t think you are a better photographer, when you shoot in manual mode. At the beginning you should just use the P mode and you are more than fine. On my Lumix GF1 I don’t use anything else than the P mode. It works great and I don’t have to think about anything. Don’t think that you are a worse photographer by using the P mode. It’s not the settings which make you a good photographer.
Use Mode A After a certain time you may have your camera under a certain control and can move over to the A mode. The aperture priority mode I use very often and it is useful to steer the level of depth of field of your photo. For my candid portraits I always use Mode A with an aperture of f/4 while the camera sets the shutter speed. Use Mode S The shutter priority mode I only use when I want to create motion blurred shots. When someone is walking by an interesting background, I can motion blur him. I use a shutter speed of about 1/20 for a walking person. You have to use a tripod or have to ensure that you don’t shake your camera. The right exposure I think it’s more important to get the right exposure on your shots than the mode you are using. Some lenses are brighter than others. I normally use matrix measuring with an exposure correction of -0.7EV on my Nikon with my 50mm lens. This is something you have to try out and get comfortable with. I don’t think you have enough time to change your settings during a shot. You have to know upfront what is working best in most of the cases. Talking about ISO ISO is a difficult thing. Especially on crop factor cameras. You should know how high you can go, not to get too much grain in the photo. This is different on every camera and I try to stay away from higher ISO values. For me the limit is at ISO 800. I don’t go higher except when I really have to get that shot.
