just got a A80 recently.. and want to take some effect photos..
like taking photo where the background is blur(only focus the subject),shooting night scene where lamp post etc all like got stars effect, and others effects..

any one help?
thanks..
need to use any lens?filters?
thanks again and many thanks..
hope expert can help...
 

sorry.
But the background blur effect can only be achieved properly with a camera with bigger sensors. i.e.: more expensive camera.

But if U wanna see the max blurness your cam can do, shoot an object in macro mode, & make sure your background is far far away... Must set aperatureto lowest number... That's the best already..

Not sure if the star effect can be done on the A80. But to get it, put your camera on a tripod, set to Tv mode, set slowest shutter speed, so that your aperature can be the smallest(biggest F-number). Or set to Av, aperature to F8 (smallest?) then shoot... can try... may not have...

the cheapest and lightest one you can find. Should be about S$15/-.

As for blurred background, you could always cheat and use photoshop.
