Sunlight issues.

I should have been counting up the number of times posters have been told to shoot in manual mode.

Full manual or die.

Shoot in full manual or you'll never get anywhere.

Learn the "exposure triangle" and then always shoot in manual.

Green auto is for noobs.

While the above are not quotes, the remarks recreated here are representative of many threads over the last year.

Is it any wonder that some people do not feel like posting anything?

Personally, I think it should be required that you learn to shoot in manual before you're given a license to use The Magic Green Auto.
 
Can we stop beating on the OP please?

They made an error and asked for help. Either offer constructive help or keep the remarks to yourself.

Thank you.

Full manual or die.

Hey...I have that phrase on some absolutely GORGEOUS white stick-on bumper stickers, with lovely 100% waterproof white mylar field with red lettering for Canon users, and also some simply to-die-for (get it???) yellow-field with black lettering for the Nikon set!!! Both the red-on-white Canon stickers and the black-on-yellow for Nikon bumper stickers are 44 inches wide,and have bold, easily-readable 2 and 3/8 inch high lettering! Available for only $6.99 each, or two for $10. PM me for details!!!

Full manual or die!

Anyway, Kyle, you'll probably find that the camera's automated programming does a pretty good job of suggesting decent f/stop and shutter speed combinations, based upon a whole bunch of data points that the camera uses to evaluate metering. The date, city, and time of day are part of the equation, as are red,green, and blue color assessments compared and contrasted with the reflectance values of the subjects, plus time of day, focal length, and so on. "Smart light metering" works pretty well in modern cameras that are not color-blind. best of luck to you dude!

Meaning me, sir?

FYI: I was being more supportive of the OP than you can imagine.

Sorry for posting my opinion of a topic that was originally broached by the OP.

I didn't want to call anyone out directly, but not do I want you to have called yourself out unanswered.

No. Not you.
 
Probably an identity crisis of the electrons in the sensor - couldn't remember if they were supposed to be negative or positive, and decided that they were really positrons, which totally confused the rest of the circuitry, which then recorded that confusion as overexposure.
 
Kyle - you can shoot on P, or Auto, a.k.a. Green,

but you've expressed how you are starting your own photography business. Something you plan to do for your income. I think you owe it to yourself to learn the exposure triangle, read your camera's manual (or as I saw earlier, RTFM), and understand your cameras metering system. "P" and green may get your pictures exposed now, but you're missing out on a lot of tricks and techniques that could be used in a wide range of situations to make your photo better than the next guy - basically, the whole point of a business. Make yours better than his.



Anyway, I still can't all the way understand if you're trolling or serious, but either way, good luck. I look forward to seeing where you go from here.

Camera Alcoholism. Wasn't it common in some of the lower range Nikon's? Yeah, I always keep mine away from the booze. They just don't have the same self control as they used to.

Then stop trollin', bro. You didn't even read the entire thing I said, did you? I'm loving reading your posts just to see how strange of a human being you are. You have a lot of people offering you help here, a lot of seriously great help, but I'm not sure if you're even reading it.
