MX-1 green mode vs. auto pict.

**rpthomas** · 05-03-2013, 11:12 AM

New to cameras and just purchased a MX-1, can't really understand the difference of "Green mode" and "auto Pict" mode. Seem the same to me.
Any help would be appreciated.

The difference is explained here:

Green mode is for people who have little or no knowledge of photography, so a highly-simplified interface is shown.

Most excellent, thank you.

As I understand it, green mode can cause shrinkage of the p*nis, so should be approached with caution. Remember: "M" stands for Manly!
