WAYS OF USING AUTO MODE
On
AUTO
mode,
your
XG-9
will
set the
precise
shutter
speed
for
proper
exposure
for
you
automatically.
Even so,
you
have consider-
able
control
over results and can adjust, aper-
ture
and
shutter
speed over considerable ranges
to
suit
the
conditions
and
yourself.
General use
For
usual
good
personal
pictures
with
a
minimum
of
care where
no
particular
effect
is
desired,
simply
set
the
aperture
as
indicated in
the
table. These guide settings
will
provide
as
much
depth
of
field
(see
p.
36)
as
possible
while
producing
a
shutter
speed fast enough
to
stop
any
subject
motron
and guard against
blur
from
camera
movement
(see
p.
3S)'
