• Taking a Picture in A/S/M Mode
In A/S/M mode, you may choose aperture priority or shutter priority, or
manually adjusting aperture value and shutter speed for special effect
creation.
Taking a Picture in Aperture Priority (A) Mode
Aperture priority is the ability to set the aperture over its full range and
have the camera calculate the best shutter speed to expose the image
correctly. When you set the aperture in the aperture-priority mode, the
camera automatically selects a shutter speed to match the brightness.
Select a lower aperture value (opening the aperture) allows you to fade the
background and create a beautiful portrait. A higher aperture value (closing
it) brings the entire range from foreground to background into focus.
You can set the camera to A mode and take a picture by the following
steps:
1. Turn on the camera by sliding and holding the Power Switch in the
arrow direction shown near the switch for 2 seconds.
2. Set the camera in A/S/M mode.
