MANUAL MODE SETTINGS
About the manual mode settings
Your digital disk camera is equipped with a manual mode and automatic mode. The manual
mode settings (see pages 90 to 97) are stored even after the digital disk camera is turned off so it
is unnecessary for you to set the manual mode settings each time you switch to the manual
mode. This allows you to use the automatic mode and switch to your previously set manual mode
settings only when necessary. (You can also set your digital disk camera so that the manual
mode settings are cleared each time it is turned off. See page 112.)
By becoming familiar with the manual mode settings, you can perform many different types of
interesting effects for a wider range of interesting applications. The settings for the manual and
automatic modes are made separately for the still image, sequential shot, and video clip shooting
modes.
