Taking Photographs-Exposure A: Aperture-Priority Auto In mode A, you choose the aperture while the camera controls shutter speed for optimal exposure. Small apertures (high f/-numbers) increase depth of field, bringing both the main subject and background into focus. Large apertures (low f/-numbers) soften background details and let more light into the camera, increasing the range of the flash and making photographs less susceptible to blurring. Mode A is only available with CPU lenses. To take photographs in aperture-priority auto: 1 Rotate the mode dial to A. 2 Rotate the sub-command dial to choose the desired aperture. 3 Frame a photograph, focus, and shoot. Exposure Warning If the limits of the exposure metering system are exceeded, one of the following indicators will be displayed in the control panel and viewfinder: Indicator Description Subject too bright. Choose smaller aperture (larger f/-number) or lower sensitivity ( 46), or use optional Neutral Density (ND) filter. Subject too dark. Choose larger aperture (smaller f/-number) or higher sensitivity ( 46). If the flash-ready indicator ( ) blinks in the viewfinder, the flash can be used for additional lighting. The flash-ready indicator will not be displayed if Off is selected for Custom Setting 20 (Flash sign). 81
