In this mode, you set the desired aperture and the camera sets the
shutter speed automatically to suit the subject brightness. This is called
aperture-priority AE.
A larger aperture (lower f/number) will result in a blurred background
ideal for portraits. The lower the f/number, the more blurred the
background will become. If a smaller aperture (larger f/number) is used,
the foreground and background will be in focus. The higher the f/
number, the clearer the focus will be for both near and far subjects.
*f stands for Aperture value.
