Examples of problematic shots taken on the green auto setting

A. Backlit subject: Place your subject (preferably a person) in front of a bright window and take a photo of them.

B. Fast subject: Have your subject indoors or in the shade and have them move around quickly. If you have room in the space, have them run back and forth. If space is limited, just have them wave their arms up and down. Take photos of them doing these actions.

C. Subject is not in the foreground: Set up a shot so that your subject (it can be a person or an object) is not the closest thing to the camera. For example, a bird in a cage, or a person standing at the back of the room and a table in the middle of the room.

D. High noon: Take a shot of someone outside on a sunny day around noon. Observe the harsh light and unflattering shadows created on your subject’s face.

E. Light and Dark in one shot: Take a shot on a bright day that includes the bright blue sky and a part of the ground with shadows on it.

F. Night shot: Take a photo of someone at night time standing in front of a location that doesn’t have very much light.
