(Av Mode)
To blur the background or to make everything near and far look sharp, set
the Mode Dial to <f> (Aperture-priority AE) to adjust the depth of eld
(range of acceptable focus).
* <f> stands for Aperture value (the size of the lens diaphragm opening).

Sharp foreground and background
(With a high aperture f/number: f/32)

Set the Mode Dial to <f>.

Set the desired aperture.
The higher the f/number, the wider the depth
of eld where sharper focus is obtained in
both the foreground and background.
Turning the <

higher f/number (smaller aperture opening),
and turning it counterclockwise sets a lower
f/number (larger aperture opening).

When you focus and press the shutter
button completely, the picture will be
taken with the set aperture.
