Aperture Priority
You can shoot by adjusting the aperture and changing the range in focus, or by defocusing the background.
About the aperture ring
The maximum aperture depends on the focal length of the lens. You cannot open the aperture wider than the maximum
even if you set a smaller F-value using the aperture ring. You can confirm the correct F-value on the display panel of the
monitor.
Hint
You can change the click texture of the aperture ring using the Aperture Click Switch (B). When shooting still images, set the
Aperture Click Switch to “ON,” and for movies, set it to “OFF.”
Note
The brightness of the image on the screen may differ from the actual image being shot.
We recommend that you set the aperture value to between F2.4 and F8 if you want to shoot images with high resolution.

Set the mode dial to A (Aperture Priority).
1
Select the desired value by rotating the aperture ring (A).
Smaller F-value: The subject is in focus, but objects in front of and beyond the subject are blurred.
Larger F-value: The subject and its foreground and background are all in focus.
If the aperture value you have set is not suitable for appropriate exposure, the shutter speed on the shooting
screen will blink. If this happens, change the aperture value.
2
Adjust the focus and shoot the subject.
The shutter speed is automatically adjusted to obtain proper exposure.
