A
Aperture priority shooting
Allows you to set the aperture manually. The camera sets the shutter speed
automatically. By decreasing the aperture value (F number), the camera will
focus within a smaller range, producing a picture with a blurred background.
Increasing the value forces the camera to focus over a wider range in the
forward and backward directions, resulting in a picture in which both the subject
and the background are in focus.

sharp, as if it were not
moving.

lower blurs a moving
subject, giving the
impression of movement.
