What Auto settings are there?

  • Scene modes; does your model even have them?
  • ISO; hold quality questions here for ISO section
  • White Balance; hold quality questions here for WB section
  • Focus; auto vs. manual
  • Focus point selection
  • Exposure mode; Program, Auto, Scene modes, even Aperture and Shutter priority modes are automatic to a degree
