Shutter-Priority AE
In this mode, you set the shutter speed and the camera automatically
sets the aperture value to suit the brightness of the subject. This is called
Shutter-Priority AE.
A fast shutter speed can freeze the motion of a fast-moving subject and
a slow shutter speed can blur the subject to give the impression of
motion.
