Should I use automatic or manual focus settings on my camera?

Should I use automatic or manual exposure settings on my camera? As far as focusing goes, you have two options. You can manually focus or you can automatic focus. The point and shoot is pretty much all automatic. You can move the box around but it’s—they’re pretty self explanatory. As far as an XLR goes, automatic focus is a great thing for everyday use, for sports photography. Because things are moving so quickly, you want to be able to press halfway down and you want it just to focus on its own. The only time I flip it into manual focus is if I’m photographing macro which means up close flowers, bees that are just sitting there on that pretty rose, anything up close, wedding rings. I flip it into manual because that way, I can get a depth of field where I want it.
