Confirm Mode
Somehow the dsc p71 that I have been happy with for 5 years has gotten into a mode that I can't get it out of. When you take a picture, it asks "Record" or "delete" and you have to push the button to get it to record. This makes it impossible to take fast multiple pictures of wildlife.
