Aperture Priority Shooting - Olympus CAMEDIA C-70 ZOOM Advanced Manual

Aperture priority shooting

This function 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, resulting in increased "depth of field", in which both the
subject and the background are in focus.
Aperture (F-number) is decreased.
