The Tutorial outlines the basics of taking and viewing photographs in (auto) and Digital
Vari-Program modes. This section assumes that default camera settings are used; for infor-
mation on restoring default settings, see page 134.

lected when a non-CPU lens is attached, the shutter release will be disabled.
