238 The “Recording” (Camera icon) Menu Settings

It’s worth noting that you can only use Auto Object Framing if the Drive
Mode is set to “Single Shooting” AND the Autofocus Area is set to
“Wide”. When this feature is invoked, “Continuous Shooting” to capture
multiple frames is greyed out on the function menu. This feature is also
available in Panorama recording and can be used with Picture Effect
features.

5.34 AUTO MODE
Menu Position MENU  8  Auto Mode

What it Does Lets you choose between Intelligent Auto (iAuto) or Superior
Auto (iAuto+)

Recommended Setting iAuto so you can hand the camera to strangers once
in a while.

Constraints Only available when the exposure mode dial is set to “Auto”.

I covered the differences between iAuto and iAuto+ mode in Section 3.1.
Basically the iAuto+ mode will also invoke multiple-exposure features at
will and therefore is unideal if you want to hand your camera to a stranger
and say “Here, take a picture of us!”. So that’s why I recommend keeping
this setting to iAuto.
