Nikon FG - A-Automatic Exposure Mode; A Mode Operation - Aperture-Priority Selection

A-automatic exposure mode
With the FG set on A, you select the flstop and the
computer matches
it with the correct stepless shutter
speed. The A mode
is especially useful for creating
special effects in depth of field while still using the
camera
on automatic mode to assure perfect ex-
posure (aperture-priority selection) Deeper depth of
field (or greater focus zone in foreground and back-
ground around subject) is achieved as you stop down
the
lens to its smaller aperture openings (larger
f/numbers). Shallower depth of field (soft ly blurred
both in front and behind your main subject) results
from larger aperture openings (smaller flnumbers)
and emphasizes the main
subject.
