SETTING THE CAMERA TO RECORD IMAGES AUTOMATICALLY

Turn the mode dial to automatic recording (1); all camera operations are now fully automatic. The autofocus, exposure, and imaging systems will work together to bring beautiful results effortlessly.

While many of the camera’s systems in this mode are automatic, the camera’s operation can be optimized to different subjects very simply with the digital subject program button (p. 28). The flash mode (p. 30) and drive mode (p. 32) can also be changed. Image size and quality can be set on the auto-recording mode menu (p. 38).
