: Changing the Depth of Field

 

When using a high aperture, note that camera shake can occur 
in low light scenes.
A higher aperture will make the shutter speed slower. Under low 
light, the shutter speed can be as long as 30 sec. In such cases, 
increase the ISO speed and hold the camera steady or use a tripod.

 

The depth of field depends not only on the aperture, but also 
the lens and subject distance.
Since wide-angle lenses have a wide depth of field (range of 
acceptable focus in front of and behind the point of focus), you need 
not set a high aperture to obtain a sharp picture from the foreground 
to the background. On the other hand, a telephoto lens has a narrow 
depth of field.
And the closer the subject, the narrower the depth of field. A farther 
subject will have a wider depth of field.

 

Set the aperture so that the shutter speed display does not 
blink in the viewfinder.
If you press the shutter button halfway and change 
the aperture while the shutter speed is displayed, 
the shutter speed display will also change to 
maintain the same exposure (amount of light 
reaching the image sensor). If you exceed the 
adjustable shutter speed range, the shutter speed 
display will blink to indicate that the standard 
exposure cannot be obtained.
If the picture will be too dark, the “30"” (30 sec.) shutter speed 
display will blink. If this happens, turn the <6> dial to the left to set 
a lower aperture or increase the ISO speed.
If the picture will be too bright, the “4000” (1/4000 sec.) shutter 
speed display will blink. If this happens, turn the <6> dial to the 
right to set a higher aperture or decrease the ISO speed.
