The advantages of automatic shooting
This camera is equipped with the following three automatic shooting modes:
[Intelligent Auto], [Superior Auto], and [Program Auto].
(Intelligent Auto):
Allows you to shoot with automatic scene recognition.
(Superior Auto):
Allows you to shoot with automatic scene recognition. This mode takes clear
images of dark or backlit scenes.
P
(Program Auto):
Allows you to adjust various shooting settings such as white balance or ISO value,
etc.
Aperture value and shutter speed are automatically set by the camera.
Hint
In [Superior Auto] mode and when the
(overlay icon) is displayed, be sure
not to move the camera before the multiple shots are recorded.
In [Program Auto] mode, you can change the combination of shutter speed and
aperture value while maintaining the correct exposure by turning the control
wheel. This function is called "Program Shift" (
P*
).
Note
In [Superior Auto] mode, the recording process takes longer, since the product
creates a composite image. In this case, the
(overlay icon) is displayed
and the shutter sound is heard multiple times, but only one image is recorded.
For [Intelligent Auto] and [Superior Auto] mode, most of the functions are set
automatically, and you cannot adjust the settings on your own.
