Recording pictures (advanced)

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.

• Refer to P55 for the available range of the 

aperture value and the shutter speed.

• The focus range is 5 cm –

¶ (Wide), 

120 cm –

¶ (Tele).

• If the subject is too bright, set to larger 

aperture value, if too dim, set to smaller 
aperture value.

• The brightness of the screen may differ 

from that of the actual pictures. Check it 
using review function or setting to the 
playback mode.

• The ISO sensitivity cannot be set to 

[AUTO]. (P68) (When the recording mode 
is switched to Aperture-priority AE, the 
ISO sensitivity is automatically set to 
[ISO100] even though it was set to [AUTO] 
beforehand.)

• When the exposure is not adequate, the 

aperture value and the shutter speed on 
the screen turn red.
