Aperture Adjustment

You can adjust the aperture size value. 

Selecting a large aperture opening will 

emphasize the point of focus and show a 

blurry background and foreground. A small 

aperture opening will keep both the  

background and main object in clear focus.  

(Adjustable in     Mode)

Using Quick Recording

In shooting mode, press the Recording 

shortcut button   to begin recording video.

After finishing, press the Recording short 

cut button or the Shutter Button to stop and 

store the video. The camera will return to 

shooting mode automatically.
