iAuto or "Intelligent Auto" is the basic point and shoot mode that allows anyone to pick up the camera and start shooting. The camera makes all of the adjustments, including ISO, white balance and will even automatically put the camera into the correct scene mode or macro mode if needed. This mode also automatically enables Dual Image Stabilization and face detection, making sure you have clear photos every time.





olympus_7010_rec_ready.jpgWhen you half-press the shutter release it starts the autofocus process and if it locks you'll see the AF targets turn green. If focus fails, they will turn red and flash on the screen (not shown.) The 'red lightning bolt' icon indicates the flash is charged and ready to fire. The camera also lets you know what mode iAuto has chosen, like Macro shown above.





olympus_7010_rec_program.jpg"Program" mode gives you the most control over the camera. Here you will have access to the White Balance, ISO, Metering, Exposure Compensation and Drive Mode as well as other camera functions.






olympus_7010_4way_anim.gifThe 4-way controller offers shortcuts to some of the most frequently used features. Pressing it Up will allow you to adjust the Exposure Compensation, Right controls the Flash, Down turns on the Self-Timer, and Left controls the Macro settings.

olympus_7010_rec_beauty.jpgBeauty mode is located on the Mode dial, which is much like Portrait mode. It uses the Face Detection system to find and lock onto your subject's face, then applies a softening effect that creates more pleasing skin tones.
