Questions: Does this camera allow you to do that, or is it also completely automatic?

It doesn't specifically do that; once you press the button, the camera (if you have it on Automatic) will adjust focus and then take the photo immediately after!

No. It is completely manual, but it works great and takes photos. I use it for 360 panoramuc shots

It depends on how you have the camera set. This camera is like several different cameras in one - you can set it on full automatic or you can set it on full manual, either one with the flash ON or OFF as you desire.

Yes, and it goes to it automatically when the camera is in "Auto" and you go in close for a picture.

Hi, I am a beginner with this camera. So far I have only used the "Auto" function as I use this camera primarily for taking pictures of merchandise under natural light. Sorry I could not be of more help. Linda P.S. the camera takes awesome pics for what I do :)

Hello... This particular camera does not automatically follow and focus on motion detected objects. There are cameras on the market that do, but those are very spendy.

It can do both. I use it mainly in the motion activated mode. But, you can set it up as a plot camera where it'll shoot so many seconds of video each day at a specified time. I own two of these and they've been great cameras for the money.

It has continuous shooting if you hold down the shutter button. It's not too quick but it's effective. I like mine!

I have the same question, actually. That's the only reason I haven't bought it yet. I would love to get myself in shots, as well as the entire family, but the problem I have now with just using the camera's self-timer is that you can't autofocus on yourself when you're behind the camera! The review I read seems to say that you can't autofocus using just the remote...but B. Babb's response makes me think otherwise. I'm sure someone else out there would care to clarify...

I'm sorry I can't answer that question because I could never get the "auto" portion to work. All I get is a stationary picture, which is a pretty good view. I called the Swann tech support but they never helped to my satisfaction. If you want a camera with patrol ability, you're going to have to pay the price.Don't get me wrong, this is a good camera but it is not all it's cracked up to be.

You can rotate the camera manually. The optics are sharp and for the $ its a nice camera!

Only if you want to do it that way. When I use it you can just leave the shutter speed at 0 and it follows whatever the camera shutter speed is set at. It's a really versatile bit of equipment, I've never run into a major design flaw like that so far.

yes there are automatic setting for the camera. Auto-focus works as long as you use a sony e-mount lens.

There is not an auto shoot setting , although I am sure you could adapt the self timing function to operate in the same way.
