Aperture-Priority AE
In this mode, you set the aperture value, and the camera automatically sets the shutter speed
to suit the brightness of the scene. This is called Aperture-Priority AE.
By setting a smaller aperture value (larger aperture), you can blur the background to make the
subject stand out as in a portrait. Or, by setting a larger aperture value (smaller aperture), you
can increase the depth of field to make both the foreground and background look sharp.
Av stands for “aperture value.
Small aperture value Large aperture value
