Depth of Flied
Auto- This is where the camera takes over and basically makes a guess depending on whatever you are photographing and decides what lighting the picture should have. However when working with trickier lighting it is worth changing the settings from auto and choosing your own.
Tungsten- This mode is usually symbolized with a little bulb and is for shooting indoors, especially under tungsten(incandescent) lighting (such as bulb lighting). It generally cools down the colours in photos.
Fluorescent- This compensates for the 'cool' light of fluorescent light and will warm up your shots.
Daylight/sunny- This setting really depends on what camera you have, some have this setting whilst others don't. This is because it is very similar to the auto setting.
Cloudy- This setting generally warms things up a touch more than 'daylight' mode.
Flash- The flash of the cameras can be quite a cool light so in flash WB mode you'll find it warms up your shots.
Shadow- The light in shade is generally cooler (bluer) than shooting in direct sunlight so this mode will warm things up a little.
