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 opening (lower f/number) will result in a blurred
background ideal for portraits. This occurs because a lower f/number
decreases the depth of field (range of acceptable focus). On the other
hand, a smaller aperture opening (higher f/number) will make more of
the foreground and background fall within acceptable focus. A smaller
aperture opening increases the depth of field.
* <f> stands for Aperture value.
