AUTO
In these modes, the camera adjusts shutter speed
and other exposure settings automatically; in S
mode, the camera also automatically optimizes set-
tings to suite the scene. Note that in S mode, the
camera focuses continuously, increasing the drain on
the battery, and that the sound of the camera focus-
ing may be audible. Choose B mode for quieter fo-
cusing or to reduce the drain on the battery.
