E Aperture-Priority AE
In this mode, you set the desired aperture value and the camera sets
the shutter speed automatically to suit the subject brightness.
The larger or brighter the aperture value (lower f/number) the more
blurred the background will become. This effect is ideal for portraits.
The smaller or darker the aperture value (higher f/number), the clearer
the focus will be for both near and far objects (wider depth of field).
∗E is an abbreviation for Aperture value.
