SEMI-AUTOMATIC EXPOSURE SETTING – A/S
APERTURE PRIORITY - A
Aperture priority mode sets the exposure automatically according
to the manually selected aperture. This mode is suitable for
pictures in which the depth of field is a critical compositional
element.
By selecting an appropriately low aperture value, you can reduce
the depth of field range, for example to make a face “stand out” in
sharp focus against an unimportant or distracting background.
Conversely, you can use a higher aperture value to increase the
depth of field range, so that everything from the foreground to the
background will be in full focus in a landscape shot.

SHUTTER SPEED PRIORITY – S
Shutter speed priority mode will set exposure automatically
according to the manually selected shutter speed. It is therefore
particularly suitable for pictures of moving objects, where the
sharpness of the movement depicted is a critical picture composition
element.
An appropriately fast shutter speed can help to avoid e.g. unwanted
motion blurring and will "freeze" the object. Conversely, an
appropriately longer shutter speed can help create a better feeling
of motion in the image with targeted "tracer effects".
