Which Auto mode are you taking about? Live view does not work in the basic zone. It only works in the creative modes. Does it work in P Mode? That's the only "Auto" mode it would work in.

In P, Tv, Av, and crative modes, it works. But BEFORE when i chose the mode, i saw the scene on the screen. Now I keep seeing exifs. To see the scene (liveview?), i have to push SET on the back, so mirror open (I hear "clac!), and I finally see the scene. That is annoying, for me and for the owner.

In AUTO mode, (green square on the dial), no way to see the scene, and no way to shoot. If I push shoot button, nothing happens. Auto mode is dead.

How can I restore auto mode?
