] Auto Mode

Auto photography mode is the most commonly used photography mode. Images can
be captured simply because the exposure (the combination of shutter speed and
aperture setting) is determined automatically to suit the photographic conditions.
You can use either the optical viewfinder and/or the 2.5" LCD monitor to compose your
images. Capturing images using the optical viewfinder will conserve the battery power. If
the battery power is low, it is recommended that you only compose images using the
viewfinder. Using the LCD monitor, you can compose images more accurately, but at the
cost of the battery consumption. Always use the LCD display for close-up macro shots.
