43<P>
44Enables or disables the camera's automatic exposure feature. We recommend enabling this when the camera is started because the exposure value is undefined immediately after the camera has been started with the <a href="CAMERA_I2CActivate.html"><CODE>CAMERA_I2CActivate</CODE></a> function.<BR><BR> Unlike <code>CAMERA_I2CAutoExposure</code>, the <code>CAMERA_I2CAutoExposureAsync</code> function returns control immediately and runs asynchronously. Use <SPAN class="argument">callback</SPAN> to confirm that processing has completed.<br><br> <font color="red"><B>Note:</B></font><br> If camera settings are changed using any of the <code>CAMERA_I2C*</code> functions, the changes may be delayed for approximately one frame before they are applied. If camera settings are changed during image capture, therefore, an application's timing may make it impossible to get an image with the changes applied.<br><br> Although this function disables automatic exposure, you can enable it by calling a <code><a href="CAMERA_I2CExposure.html">CAMERA_I2CExposure*</a></code> function.<br><br> <font color="red">Occasional Shifting of Captured Images</font><br> The captured image may shift if this function is called during image capture.<br>Before calling this function, first stop the image capture with <code><a href="CAMERA_StopCapture.html">CAMERA_StopCapture</a></code>. Then call this function. After this function completes execution, restart the image capture with <code><a href="CAMERA_StartCapture.html">CAMERA_StartCapture</a></code>.
