background of the subject are blurred.
Larger F-number: The subject and its
foreground and background are all in
focus.
• You cannot check the blurring of an
image on the LCD screen or in the
viewfinder. Check the recorded image
and adjust the aperture.

Shooting techniques
• The shutter speed may become slower depending on the aperture value.
When the shutter speed is slower, use a tripod.
• To blur the background more, use a telephoto lens or a lens that is
equipped with a smaller aperture value (bright lens).
• You can check the approximate blurring of the image before recording
using the preview button.
