Trying to learn all the correct camera setting for the different light changes. Heavy rain clouds moved in just as I was set on capturing a blue sky sunrise. I was set on AV with a
75-300 mm Cannon lens F7.1 ISO 100 seemed to work I think, all advice and comment are welcomed. I know, practice is helpful but sometime frustrating.

I know this maybe objectionable to some but I would have live viewed with a set Fstop and ISO on a tripod, watched the display/histogram and toggled the shutter until I found what was pleasing. With changing light, I think you are liable to make more pleasing shots that way unless you know your camera very well. You really only have a small time frame to use before it slips away.

John, although I'm hampered by the use of an old laptop to view your post, the first one seems the best of the three to me.

The camera has three basic settings with which to concern yourself, ISO, Shutter Speed, and Aperture. Ideally, one should learn their camera's capabilities way prior to actually putting them to work. It takes practice and a good deal of attention to the results of that practice.
