Step 3—Adjust camera settings

In automatic mode, the user can adjust flash, focus, exposure compensation, and image quality. The default settings, which produce the best results in most circumstances, are automatic flash, autofocus, no exposure compensation, an image quality of “nor- mal,” and an image size of “full” (1,600 ⋅ 1,200 pixels).

These settings allow the camera to set focus automatically at any distance greater than 30cm (one foot). The camera measures the available light and adjusts shutter speed and aperture accordingly, firing the flash to provide additional light as necessary.
