Understanding Aperture

The aperture value can be adjusted to control the amount of light reaching the image sensor. The aperture value needs to be adjusted in the following cases:

When shooting against the light or when the background is too bright.

When shooting on a reflective natural background such as at the beach or when skiing.

When the background is overly dark (for example, night scenery).

• When you specify “Aperture: Manual,” the iSCENE mode is cancelled, “Super C.Nite” is set to “Off” automatically, and “Shutter” is set to “Auto” automatically. (Manual Aperture priority)

• Minimum aperture values depend on zoom magnifications. (wide: 1.8, tele: 3.3)
