Using the Aperture-Priority AE Mode

Purpose

When the desired aperture is selected, an appropriate

shutter speed is automatically set by the camera for a

proper exposure. This mode is ideal for shooting land¬

scapes with increased depth of field, or a portrait

against a blurred background. For details on the effect

of the aperture setting, see page 86-

• Set the shutter dial to [ A ] while holding down the

shutter dial lock button. [ Av ] appears on the LCD

panel to indicate that the Aperture-Priority AE Mode
