Selecting the right mode for the shooting technique — P , A , S and M
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.
