APERTURE-PRIORITY AUTO EXPOSURE MODE
Select the aperture based on how shallow or large you want |
|
depth of field to be. Smaller apertures will make the back- |
|
ground and foreground sharper (good for scenic pictures) |
|
while larger apertures will produce a shallower depth of field |
|
(good for portraits). Your selected aperture will determine the |
|
shutter speed which is automatically set by the camera'scom- |
|
puter. When using the smaller apertures with corresponding |
|
slower shutter speeds, remember as a rule of thumb that any |
|
speed below 1/30 sec. may require the use of a tripod to pre- |
|
vent picture blur due to camera shake. Also, the higher the |
|
corresponding shutter speed, the easier it is to stop action. |
|
Adjust the selected aperture if the speed is not appropriate for |
|
conditions or the specific effect you want. | At wide aperture |
