order is as follows: Night Portrait > Portrait > Macro > White > Landscape > Night > Indoor
For example,
a) If portrait and Indoor are detected simultaneously, then portrait is actived and the corresponding
icon displays.
b) If night portrait and night are detected at the same time, then night portrait is actived and the cor-
responding icon displays.
