Taking Pictures with Aperture-priority AE
When you want the background to be in sharp focus, set the aperture value to a
higher number. The higher the aperture value, the smaller the aperture opening will
be. For a soft focus background, set the aperture number to a lower number which
corresponds to a larger aperture opening.
Preparation
• Set the mode dial to [ ]. (P30)
1 Select [AE MODE] and set it to [A].
• Close the menu by pressing the
[MENU] button after finishing the
setting.
2 Set the aperture value and take
the picture.
