portrat shot with blurred background?

It's actually very hard to get very shallow depth of field with P&S digital cameras because the sensor size is much smaller than in DSLRs (the APS-C size sensor in most DSLRs has about 10 times more surface than the 1/1.8" size sensor in most P&S cameras) - there's a whole theory behind this which includes circle of confusion calculations etc. - just realize that it's technically impossible to get the same result with the FZ28 (or any P&S camera with a similar size sensor) as you'd get with a full-blown DSLR. That being said, shoot in A mode with the widest aperture (smallest number), walk away from your subject and zoom in (you'll have to find the right balance between distance from your subject and zoom setting to get the image composition you want) - that'll at least get you a bit more background blur.

What else did you try that helped? When I use any amount of telephoto indoors the result is blurry unless I use a flash.

The macro shots are very good but can get grainy if too zoomed in. Software could probabaly help clean up a photograph.

Thank you so much for answering my question. I'm just begenning and the only backdrop I have is a blue one and I want to try this digital backgrounds collection to see how it works out for me. How has it worked for you?

THe background noise is muffled but not completely drowned out. Hope this helps you :)

The lens can blur backgrounds only at wide apertures, like F2.0 of F1.4. The camera may not let you set wide apertures in video mode. You have to see if you can take movies in aperture priority. I think you can do it but you have to check.

If the subject is moving you need to use a faster shutter speed to prevent blurring.

the backdrop seems to be a very good quality, however for this particular shoot I was looking for more of a blue gray as shown in the picture the grey background would be fine for another shoot but it just wouldn't work for me this time if you're familiar with the zone system I would say this would be Sixor or seven or closer on the grayscale

Check out the review comment posted at the product site on Amazon - one chap has addressed the blur issue specifically. Here's the link to the review http://www.amazon.com/review/R3PJS6SOXSDS0E/ref=cm_cr_rdp_perm

try putting the camera on a table and taking a picture while is absolutely still. If it is still blurry I would call Nikon

Not with the software included, no. I assume you're wanting to overlay one image onto another to spot any differences. You would need different software for this, which is probably on the market for a price.

There is a portrait settings an others which allow for professional photography which will deliberately put the background in a soft "out of focus" and allow the portrait to become the center of the photograph> Go on line to check the Canon instructional download that will show you in color how this is done with the settings.

I have not seen this issue with my camera. I have experimented with all of the various video settings and could not create this. Make sure you have enough lighting.

It's a bit pixelated. About the quality of the PS3 camera. I prefer my external Logitech HD camera

Hi j michael, I suggest checking on the distnace of your camera to your subject to avoid blur and out of focus shots. Thanks_Mitch
