]
button.
2. Set the shutter speed with the command dial.

3.4. Aperture-priority Mode
[ AV ]
In this mode, photographs are taken with the priority given to aperture. The camera
automatically sets the shutter speed according to the aperture.
A small aperture value produces a portrait photo with an out-of-focus background. The
smaller the aperture value, the more out-of-focus the background becomes.
A large aperture value produces sharp images on both close objects and distant objects
like landscapes. The larger the aperture value, the larger the area for sharp images.
Note

Setting the shutter speed slower than 0.5 second will result in long exposure
photography and the [ ] will be displayed on the screen.
•
In the flash photography mode, when[
] and [
] are set, the fastest
shutter speed is 1/250 second.
•
In the capture mode [Continuous] and [Auto Exp.], the shutter speed cannot
be set slower than 0.5 second.
