To get the best picture, never ever use the zoom feature. So the best suited option is to take the image first (without zooming), and then crop it afterwards.
HDR Mode

Basically, HDR mode takes two images of different exposures near-simultaneously, and then combines them to produce one image that has higher dynamic range. This mode works best when it's difficult to capture shadows, and extreme lighting. HDR mode shouldn't be used all the time, though. For instance, if you are shooting a moving subject, you will end up with double-image and other unwanted effects.
Use the on-Screen Buttons
