Didn't think of that - I know only a little about photography. Regardless, I'd still like to experiment with the settings and see what the results are like. At the moment, with the no flash setting, I can put the camera down on a table, set the timer and step away, yet the result will never be as clear as when I use the "auto select flash/no flash" setting, even if flash doesn't go off with the latter option.

As you said, there ARE two operating modes, auto and manual. Manual offers a little more flexibility. I use manual so that I can change settings and allow distant objects to appear a little sharper without the need for touching up in Photoshop. I think it's called "landscape focus" (or something) and it isn't available in auto mode.

I've had the camera in both auto and manual modes, but I still can't find anything to change shutter speed.
