Manual mode in photography allows the photographer to control the aperture, shutter speed, and ISO settings to determine the exposure of an image. The photographer first changes the camera to manual mode, then opens the settings menu to select aperture and shutter speed values while checking the light meter. In addition to exposure settings, the white balance or color temperature can be adjusted to accurately capture colors that may otherwise appear orange, blue, or yellow under different light sources.

1. Using camera manual mode in photography
Manual mode gives the photographer a wider range of customisation for the
camera. Different settings produce different kinds of photographs.

2. Step 1: Change The Manual Mode
• Manual mode on a camera allows the traveller to determine the exposure of an
image by letting them select an aperture value and a shutter speed value.

3. Step 2: Open Settings
• The picture show the value currently used. Check the exposure of your shot with the
light meter visible on the screen. Pick an aperture, adjust the shutter speed, and decide
the ISO setting. In most cases, if the light meter marker is at '0', you will get the right
exposure for the picture.

4. Step 3: Choose desired picture colour and white
balance
Other than triangle exposure, there are a lot setting that can be adjusted
according to what you want to capture in your camera. One of them is
white balance or colour temperature
The reason we adjust white balance is to get the colours in your images as
accurate as possible.
You might have noticed when examining shots after taking them that at
times images can come out with an orange, blue, or yellow look. The reason
for this is that images different sources of light have a different ‘color’ (or
temperature) to them. Fluorescent lighting adds a bluish cast to photos
whereas tungsten lights add a yellowish tinge to photos.
By changing the white balance, you can snap the picture and get the
accurate colours of it.
