Exposure mode
S : Shutter priority shooting
The camera sets the optimum aperture value automatically for the shutter speed you
have selected. Set the shutter speed depending on the type of effect you want: a
higher speed shutter allows you to capture a fast-moving subject without blur, and a
slower shutter speed blurs a moving subject, creating a feeling of speed or motion.
A fast shutter speed can freeze a fast
action scene without any blur. A slow shutter speed blurs a moving
subject, generating a sense of movement to
create a more powerful visual impact.
