Hi,
Does anyone have any tips to improve the depth of field?
I've tried my camcorders portrait mode but it doesn't do much. I do have adjustable f-stops on this camera (Panasonic MX-300B), but I found that this just let more light in so I had to speed the shutter up to compensate. I bought a ND2 neutral density filter and this helps (a little), but the background is still too much in focus. Is a ND4 darker than a ND2? By keeping a greater distance from the subject and zooming in (optical only of course!) helps, but this does start to limit me to tripod only.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Rob
