Aperture Priority AE Mode
Once the desired aperture is set, the camera automatically
selects an appropriate shutter speed according to the
lighting conditions surrounding the subject for the best
possible exposure. Use this mode for photographing
subjects in which the depth of field is crucial, such as
close-ups, landscapes and portraits.
1. When you select the Aperture-Priority AE mode,
the CENTIC panel confirms it by activating its
[AUTO], [a] and [F-] indicators. If the camera is
set at any other mode, use the mode/drive switch and
the select switch to set this mode.
