Rebel702:
Thanks for the input. That's exactly what I did yesterday on a test shot. I went to Aperture Priority and open the lens all the way. I had very little depth of field, which is exactly what...

Triguy:
Yes, that is a macro setting but I'm concerned that in bright sunlight, the camera will pick an aperture setting, like F/8 or F/16 and put the background in focus. I want to keep the...

Scott:
I agree with Bdog completely. The one thing you don't want to do is see a shot and not have that one lens that you left at home. If it were me, and I was going to a place that I may never...
