About aperture setting
The larger the aperture (smaller f-number)
the more blurred the background and
foreground will become. On the other
hand, the smaller the aperture (bigger f-
number) the clearer the background and
foreground will become. You may set a
small f-number for portraits. And you may
set a big f-number to capture a subject
with background/foreground in various
degrees of focus.
• Use a larger F-stop value to focus on both the
subject and background.
• Use a smaller F-stop value to clearly capture
both subject and background.
