Setting the mode dial to A (aperture priority mode) allows you to
manually set the aperture value. Once the aperture value is set, the
camera automatically sets the optimal shutter speed.
Selecting a lower aperture value (opening the aperture) allows you
to blur the background and capture a sharp portrait of the
foreground subject. Selecting a higher aperture value (closing the
aperture) allows you to capture an image with everything from the
foreground to the background in focus.
Use the up-down dial to set the aperture value.
