What is camera M file?

M file refers to a file on the full manual camera function dial. In addition, there are P, A and S files on the function dial of the full manual camera. Generally, digital cameras are called partial manual functions for P, A and S, and M is called full manual function.

Using M-file shooting, you can freely choose the aperture and speed according to the needs of the scene and shooting, and shoot the desired effect.

Extended data:

Full manual shooting is not just setting the shooting mode to m to shoot in manual mode, but setting all the settings related to manual mode.

First, set the shooting mode to M position, then set the A/M selector switch on the lens to M position to use manual focusing, and then select the focusing mode in the camera as MF, that is, manual focusing, so as to complete all the settings of manual focusing and carry out manual focusing in the real sense.

Manual focusing requires the photographer to know enough about the aperture and shutter, and can accurately judge what kind of aperture and shutter should be set to make the photo accurately exposed, and requires the photographer to change and adjust the aperture and shutter accurately at any time according to the changes of environment and light.
