APERTURE-PRIORITY EXPOSURE MODE

The microcomputer in the N5005 automatically selects the correct shutter speed to match the aperture you set. This is the recommended mode when depth 01 lield is your prime consideration. To create softer, less distinct backgrounds, as in portraitures, use wider apertures. For overall sharp, clear picture, such as scenic photography, use smaller apertures.
