Below are two photos of a rose in our backyard taken with my standard lens and the camera on a tripod to avoid any user induced blur.  I took several “identical” photos of this rose, as well as several of lake Mission Viejo off in the distance.  Unfortunately, for both subjects, the minor differences in settings from one mode to the next did not yield very noticeable differences.  And when I uploaded them here, the reduction in file size led to a reduction in detail which wiped out any changes you might have noticed!

Lesson learned:  The modes will likely be most helpful for the specific circumstances they’re designed for.  Still, understanding them COULD make subtle differences if that’s what you’re looking for.  For example, the two photos below do show a difference you can see.

This first photo was taken in Landscape mode which is designed to use a small aperture to increase the range of distances that are in focus (depth of field).  The smaller aperture forces a slower shutter speed, but since it was a bright, partly cloudy day, there was plenty of light and the camera selected f10 at 1/250th of a second.  I was intending to show the depth of field difference between this photo and the next one, but it is so slight it was lost in the upload.  On the original image, you can see that the thorns on the bud above the rose, and the veins in the leaf below it are clearer in this one but I was hoping for more difference.

The second photo was taken in Portrait mode.  Oddly enough, Portrait mode and Close Up modes used almost the same exposure settings (f5.6 at 1/500 vs. f8 at 1/250) so rather than post the Close Up photo with no discernible depth of field difference after the upload, I posted this one because you CAN see the tonal difference rendered by the Portrait setting.  Notice how this photo is just a little “softer” than the one above.

Lesson learned:  Even though this is not a “portrait,” the Portrait setting can be used to soften whatever the subject is.
