Photography in the Aperture-priority Mode
In this mode, photographs are taken with the priority given to aperture. The camera automatically sets the shutter
speed according to the aperture.
A small aperture value produces a portrait photo with an out-of-focus background. The smaller the aperture value,
the more out-of-focus the background becomes.
A large aperture value produces sharp images on both close objects and distant objects like landscapes. The
larger the aperture value, the larger the area for sharp images.
Carry out steps 1 to 2 in “Manual Settings” (page 58).
