This camera has an awful lot of beginner-level help screens for something that was supposed to be targeted at advanced users. :-) This one applies just to the mode exposure dial – each time you move it to a new function, a quick picture and 1-sentence explanation appears, letting you know what this mode is supposed to do. (Figure 11-2). I keep it off because I already know what they do.
TIP: When Mode Dial Guide is set to ON, when you switch the exposure mode dial to “Auto”, a menu automatically pops up asking if you want Superior Auto or Intelligent Auto. With it off, switching to Auto will invoke the setting as defined in MENU --> |
