You can shoot by adjusting the aperture and changing the range in focus, or by defocusing the background.

  1. Press the Still/Movie/S&Q button to select the desired shooting mode.
  2. MENU → (Shooting) → [Shooting Mode] → [Shoot Mode]/[Shoot Mode]/[Shoot Mode] → [Aperture Priority].
  3. Select the desired value by turning the control wheel.
    • Smaller F-value: The subject is in focus, but objects in front of and beyond the subject are blurred.
      Larger F-value: The subject and its foreground and background are all in focus.
    • If the aperture value you have set is not suitable for appropriate exposure, the shutter speed on the shooting screen will blink. If this happens, change the aperture value.
  4. Adjust the focus and shoot the subject.
    The shutter speed is automatically adjusted to obtain proper exposure.
