Av: Aperture-priority AE

Settings: Al

focus AF/Continuous wind/Evaluative

metering

In this mode the user selects the aperture

value and the camera sets the correct

shutter speed for the lighting conditions.

Use this mode for taking portraits, land­

scapes, and still life photography where

depth of field is an important factor. Larg­

er apertures produce a shallow depth of

field appropriate for portraits, and smaller
apertures produce a deep depth of field

desirable for landscapes.

• The initial aperture value setting is al­

ways 5.6 (f/5.6). Turn the electronic in­

put dial for the desired aperture value

Checking the Exposure

Underexposure - The shutter speed of 30”

(30 sec.) blinks. Set a larger aperture until

the shutter speed stops blinking.

Overexposure - The shutter speed of 1000

(1 /1000 sec.) blinks. Set a smaller aperture

until the shutter speed stops blinking.
