I often wondered: How do the algorithms behind exposure programs work? This test does not give me the answer - just a hint or two: Landscape means small aperture f/11), Portrait means large aperture (f/4) and Action means a fast speed (1/1000s). Not at all surprising, I must say :-) Today such algorithms are considered Industrial Secrets ... I guess AUTO means: Concider the distance - this has got to be a landscape shot. Normal means medium fast speed + medium stoped down lens. MTF means: This lens is great @ f/5.6.
The problem with such programs are: They never seem to be able to go to extreemes - like 1/2000s f.4 ISO 1600 for an action shot - which may in fact be the best choice.
