Host: Should I use automatic or manual exposure settings on my camera?

Jenny Berman: As far as focusing goes you have two options, you can manually focus or you can automatic focus. The point-and-shoots are pretty much all automatic, you can move the box around but they are pretty self-explanatory. As far as a SLR goes, automatic focus is a great thing for everyday use, for spots photography because things are moving so quickly, you want to be able to _press halfway down and you want to just to focus on its own. The only time I flip it into manual focus is, if I m photographing macro which means, up-close flowers, bees that are just sitting there on that pretty rose, anything up-close, wedding rings, flipping in to manual because that way I can get a depth of field what I wanted.
