Using the Aperture-Priority AE Mode

You can select an aperture value, and the camcorder automatically chooses the appropriate shutter speed.

Aperture values: 1.8, 2.0, 2.4, 2.8, 3.4, 4.0, 4.8, 5.6, 6.7, 8.0

Use low aperture values (large aperture) to blur the background for a portrait, or high aperture values (small aperture) to achieve a broad depth of field for recording landscapes.
