Shutter Speed Display

The numbers in the table below indicate
the shutter speed in seconds. For slower
speeds, quote marks indicate the
decimal place, so that 0"3 indicates 0.3
second and 2" indicates 2 seconds.

Setting the Aperture

The aperture adjusts the amount of light that
passes through the lens. Selecting a lower
aperture value (opening the aperture) allows
you to fade the background.
A higher aperture value (closing it) brings the
entire range from foreground to background
into focus.
