Sony bokeh depth of field. Interesting to see that the most defocused background goes to the camera with the widest field of view whereas the least defocused background goes to the camera with the narrowest field of view. The bokeh and the depth of field are two different techniques used for specific purposes. This is probably one of the most overlooked gems for getting shallow depth of field images. Heres a quick easy way how to shoot depth of field with a camcorder using the portrait mode on the sony ax33 4k camcorder great way to get blurred backgrounds and how to make subjects in.
With this photo i want to illustrate a certain point about bokeh shallow depth of field is not the same as having great bokeh. We love the beautiful bokeh and enhanced compression the 135mm. Lets see what happens with depth of field when you focus at a slightly shorter distance 712ft 217m at just the hyperfocal distance 762ft 232m and at a slightly longer distance 812ft 247m. The difference between bokeh and depth of field.
The full frame and f2 aperture give an even more defocused background than any of the rx100 models can achieve in spite of the much wider field of view. Both lenses are fairly compact for their focal length let in a lot of light and are razor sharp. Both the canon 135mm f20land nikon 135mm f20 dc. It was shot with a 50mm lens at the widest aperture f14 while the dof depth of field is wafer thin the out of focus leaves and branches in the background have an intrusive harsh shape to the edges.
Ensuring you have a wide aperture low f stop number and being as close to your subject as possible is important. Quite simply shot at the same distances the sony 85mm f18 isnt capable of producing a depth of field as narrow as you see above. For a full frame camera focal length 14mm and aperture f28 the hyperfocal distance is 762ft 232m. The differences at equivalent apertures just because the lens has a 14 aperture doesnt mean we are going to use it.
