Recording pictures (advanced)
Using the Mode Dial
 
 
When you want the background to be in 
sharp focus, set the aperture value to a 
higher number. The higher the aperture 
value is the smaller the aperture opening 
will be. For a soft focus background, set the 
aperture value to a lower number which 
corresponds to a larger aperture opening.
