mode, which automatically selects the optimal
aperture. However, when there is too much
contrast in brightness between the subject and
background, you may not be able to record a
clear image. In this case, use the manual
exposure function to correct the exposure level.
Background is too bright and subject too
dark (backlit subject).

light through the lens.
