(4) Aperture-Priority AE
[Purpose]
In this mode, the aperture is set manually and the camera chooses
correct shutter speed for the
blighting conditions (the opposite of
shutter-priority AE). Use this mode for portraits, landscapes and
still-life photography where depth of field is an important factor.
(see p. 36)
[SETTING]
1) While pressing the shooting mode selector, turn the electronic
input dial until "Av" appears in the display panel.
2) Remove your finger from the shooting mode selector. At this
point, the initial aperture setting is always 5.6 (f/5.6).
3) Turn the electronic input dial until the desired aperture value
appears.
When the automatically-set shutter speed is too slow to hand-hold,
the camera-shake warning sounds. We recommend using a tripod.
