Using the Mode Dial

When you want the background to be in
sharp focus, set the aperture value to a
higher number. The higher the aperture
value is the smaller the aperture opening
will be. For a soft focus background, set the
aperture value to a lower number which
corresponds to a larger aperture opening.

• Refer to P57 for the available range of the

aperture value and the shutter speed.

• If the subject is too bright, set to a larger

aperture value, if too dim, set to a smaller
aperture value.

• The brightness of the screen may differ

from that of the actual pictures. Check it
using review function or setting to the
playback mode.

• The ISO sensitivity cannot be set to

[AUTO]. (P72) (When the recording mode
is switched to Aperture-priority AE, the
ISO sensitivity is automatically set to
[ISO100].)

the screen turn red.
