there are so many different types of photography and i am interested in several of them. if you had to choose which setting you could change during a photoshoot which one would it be? shutter, aperture, iso,over/under exposed, etc. let me know the "one" that it would be, why, and what you would be taking pics of.

Your question is unanswerable except in essay form as you given too many variables. For a glamour shoot in a studio with a tripod, I have to keep the shutter speed below the synch speed for the flash - and I want control of the aperture for DOF, and ISO for noise - so I control a combination of those three plus my lights.

If I were shooting sports, I'd want a fast shutter speed, so aperture and ISO would be my variables.

For an outdoor portrait, DOF is most important, so ISO and shutter speed become the variables, and I may have to use a tripod.

And so on and so on--and my choices might not be the same that others would make.
