P, A, S, and M modes

Use these modes when you want more control over your camera and pictures.

NOTE: Settings you change in P, A, S, or M modes apply only to pictures taken in those modes. The settings,

including Flash, are maintained for P, A, S, and M modes—even when you change modes or turn off
the camera. Use Reset Camera to reset P, A, S, or M mode to its default setting.
