Fujifilm FinePix S5 Pro User Manual

In this mode, the photographer sets the aperture 
(minimum aperture to maximum aperture) and the 
camera automatically controls the shutter speed. This 
mode is best for photographs where the priority is on the 
depth of field (the area where objects are in focus), such 
as shots where both near and distant objects are in clear 
focus (minimum apertures) or where the background is 
out of focus (maximum apertures).

A While pressing MODE, rotate the main-command dial 

until 

 is displayed in the control panel.

B Rotate the sub-command dial to choose the desired 

aperture.

C Frame a photograph, focus, and shoot.

• When a non-CPU lens is attached and if the maximum 

aperture of the lens has been specified in the [NON-
CPU LENS DATA] under [

 MISC.] (

➝p.121) in the 

[SET UP] menu, the current f/-number will be displayed 
in the control panel and viewfinder, rounded to the 
nearest full stop. Otherwise the aperture displays will 
show only the number of stops (

, with maximum 

aperture displayed as 

) and the f/-number must be 

read from the lens aperture ring.

• If the limits of the exposure metering system are 

exceeded, one of the following indicators will be 
displayed in the control panel and viewfinder:

 : Subject too bright. Choose smaller aperture 

(larger f/-number) or ISO sensitivity (

➝p.92), or use 

optional neutral density (ND) filter.

 : Subject too dark. Choose larger aperture (smaller 

f/-number) or higher ISO sensitivity (

➝p.92), or use 

flash.

• If aperture ring of CPU lens (except G type) is not set to 

minimum aperture, 

 blinks in the control panel and 

viewfinder. In this case, the shutter cannot be released 
regardless of the exposure mode selected.
