3) Determine the exposure
Depending on which shooting mode you've selected,

read off the usable f/stop(s) from the dial. In either the

TTL or non-TTL automatic mode, more than one f/stop is

usable. When choosing an aperture, make sure that your
subject is within the auto shooting range indicated by the

color-coded lines. The larger the aperture (the smaller
the f-number) you select, the greater the maximum
shooting distance, whereas the smaller the aperture (the

larger the f-number), the less the maximum shooting

distance. If the subject distance remains the same, the
larger the aperture you select, the less depth of field in

the final photograph; however, the recycling time is
shorter. On the other hand, the smaller the aperture, the
greater the depth of field, but the recycling time is longer.
Therefore, in choosing an f/stop, all these factors should
be taken into consideration.
