(2) Background blur
• If [ OFF ] is set, the degree of background blur will change
depending on the brightness.
• If it is set to any setting other than [ OFF ], you can adjust the
background blur regardless of the brightness.
• If you turn the <
6
> or <
5
> dial to move the cursor to the right,
the background will look sharper.
• Turning the <
6
> or <
5
> dial to move the cursor to the left will
blur the subject’s background. Note that depending on the lens’s
maximum aperture (smallest f/number), certain slider adjustments
may not be selectable (indicated by •).
• When operating the <
6
> or <
5
> dial during Live View shooting,
[ Simulating blur ] will be displayed on the LCD monitor. You can
see the degree of front and background blur in contrast with the
subject that is focused on during setting operation (while
[
Simulating blur ] is being displayed).
• If you want to blur the background, see “Shooting Portraits” on
page 97.
• Depending on the lens used and shooting conditions, the
background may not look so blurred.
• This function cannot be set if you use flash. If <
a
> has been set
and you set background blur, <
b
> will be set automatically.
If [ Simulating blur ] is enabled during Live View shooting, the image
displayed with <
g
> (p.245) blinking may have more noise than the actual
image being recorded, or it may look dark.
