"Come on, admit it. As will I. 99% of all your photos taken on your Nokia smartphone have been taken with the camera set fully on 'Automatic', i.e. with nothing special set up at all. This isn't necessarily a bad thing and, indeed, it's a tribute to the auto-exposure and auto-focussing software inside each focussing S60 phone that most photos come out pretty darned well.
But, this begs the question: what use are all the fancy modes and options if they're not needed most of the time? In this feature, I'm going to look at each one and run a few experiments to both a) explain (theoretically) why an option is there and b) whether you'll ever need it!"
