    Hybrid Auto records short video every time you shoot a still image, then automatically joins the clips and pictures into a video, that captures the essence of special days: vacations, important occasions or any time you're shooting many shots in a day. In this mode, Hybrid Auto automatically recognizes the scene and optimizes camera settings for incredibly high image quality.
