Auto Pro
With Premium Auto Pro recording, the camera
automatically determines whether you are shooting a
subject or scenery, and other conditions. Premium
Auto Pro recording delivers higher image quality than
standard Auto recording.
Some of the settings configured automatically by
Premium Auto Pro cannot be changed by you.
