Taking pictures focusing on both
subject and the background
For example, if you want to take a picture with a beautiful background when
you are on travel, you will want to have both your subject and the background
in focus.
Your camera offers two different ways of achieving this effect.
Ⅵ
With the mode dial set to “S-Prg”,
select “S-Prg”–“
” in the Menu
(p.86).
Focus on the subject. Exposure is
adjusted automatically according to the
conditions.
Ⅵ
Set the mode dial to “A”, then set the
aperture manually to a higher value.
(p.87)
Increasing the value forces your camera to
focus over a wider range to the
forward/backward directions, resulting in a
picture in which both the subject and the
background are in focus.
