C Creative Auto Shooting - Canon Rebel T2i EOS 550D Instruction Manual

C Creative Auto Shooting

Basic Zone modes except <C> (Creative Auto) take care of
everything, whereas the <C> Creative Auto mode enables you to
easily change the picture's brightness, depth of field, color tone (Picture
Style), etc. The default settings are the same as the <1> (Full Auto)
mode.
* CA stands for Creative Auto.
If you change the shooting mode or if the power turns off via auto power off
(p.139) or by the power switch being set to <2>, the Creative Auto
settings will revert to the default. However, the image-recording quality, self-
timer and remote control settings will be retained.
Set the Mode Dial to <C>.
