Smart AUTO
In N mode, the camcorder will automatically detect certain charac-
teristics of the subject, background, lighting conditions, etc. It will then
adjust various settings (focus, exposure, color, image stabilization,
image quality, among others), selecting the best settings for the scene
you want to shoot. The icon in the shooting mode button will automati-
cally change to one of the following Smart AUTO icons.
• Under certain conditions, the Smart AUTO icon that appears
on the screen may not match the actual scene. Especially
when shooting against orange or blue backgrounds, the Sun-
set or one of the Blue Skies icons may appear and the colors
may not look natural. In such case, we recommend recording
in ' mode (A 89).
• There are times when the Smart AUTO function cannot detect
the scene, for example when you touch a subject on the
screen (tracking). In such case, N will be displayed as the
Smart AUTO icon.
