a newbie question:
If say for some reason, I wish to take a group picture (i.e any pic more than 1 person) with the background blurred, should I use AF, selective AF point (for which I dun who to focus on) or go with MF?
I quite sure on how to produce the effect when taking individual shots (I usually use selective AF points to focus on the subject's eyes but find that I sometimes have to lock the focus 1st then de-select AF on my lens if I have to re-compose the shot)
but when there more than 1 person I find that I usually end up using MF instead - aside: how to ensure that your MF is accurate? There were a couple of shots I took using MF but still have to use PP to adjust the sharpness.
Appreciate the advice.. thanks
