A
(Aperture-Priority
Auto)
In
aperture-priority auto, you choose the aperture from values between the minimum and
maximum for the lens while the camera automatically selects the shutter speed that will
produce
the
optimal exposure.
Small
apertures (high f/-numbers) increase depth
of
field,
bringing both the main subject and background into focus. Large apertures (low
f/-num-
bers)
soften background details.
To
take photographs
in
aperture-priority auto:
1 Rotate the mode dial
to
A.
Rotate
the
command dial until the desired aperture
is
dis-
played in the viewfinder (aperture
can
also
be displayed
in
the
monitor by pressing the
~
button).
3 Frame a photograph, focus, and shoot.
