Shooting Menu (P/A/S/M exposure modes)

Pressing the MENU button in shooting mode overlays the record menu over the live scene preview (black background used here for clarity). Other shooting menus are a subset of this menu.

The layout is fairly standard Cyber-shot, a row of options along the bottom of the display. The primary difference is that the background to each 'pop-up' is now semi-transparent.
