I have a point and shoot camera, canon digital IXUS 100 IS and I need help!!!!?
How can I capture a photo with a shallow depth of field? I mean I need a blurry background.
For the most part, this is achieved via a lens with a large aperture (that’s the small f/stop number). Often people ask how to get this effect with a small P&S camera, but unfortunately that is not something those little things are very good at.
If you have manual controls, use the biggest aperture. If you don’t, try setting it to the portrait setting which makes the camera choose the biggest aperture it is capable of. You can also attempt it on Macro setting – that may work to a certain extent.
