Depth Of Field TE Definintion

Switch the wheel to ‘A’ which is Aperture Priority Mode. For shallow depth of field and nice blurry backgrounds choose a large Aperture (the smaller the number the larger the aperture) - taking a few shots at different apertures and see how it affects the background of your shots. Shooting at the 55mm end of the lens is best. This means you can stand further back (making your subject more at ease and pushing your background even further away from your camera). You’ll probably still get nice blurry backgrounds if you use the fastest aperture available. The other good thing about zooms is that they enable you to really fill up your frame with your subject which can give it more prominence and your background less. 

Depth of field is the measurement of how much the picture is in focus. A lens can only focus on one plane at a time.

  1. good, but as mentioned previously please demonstrate how the stop numbers the effects of varying aperture e.g. f2.8 and f22 on depth of field..
