It's an SLR camera... I'm a hobbyist photographer.

No no no... Firstly, don't go off and buy one, seeing as they're around $800 or more, and they're not just for anybody. But while you're using one, you can adjust things like the focal length and get a very small area that's actually in focus, like the picture with the hard drive. But you have to know what you're doing to get those kinds of things right.

Thanks...

Great way to get off topic guys.. :p

You don't need an SLR, just a wide aperture on your camera setting, (lower F number).

I'm sure you could imitate the effect in Photoshop.

You probably could but it would be hard to make it looks as good as a real photo i think, im still getting to grips with all the different manual settings on cameras have done a few pictures like that but they dont look as good but im still learning :/

nice pictures giga

:D Thanks. I'm still getting used to everything as well. One recommendation I can make is to check out Magic Lantern guides. They are by far the best way to learn about your camera.

Anyway, sorry about getting off topic Muffin :p

[OhMuffin]

Congrats, Muffin!

Honestly, I haven't found much free time to even turn the thing on.

I will try a dvd tomorrow and report back the quality.

I remember 480p via component looked pretty damn nasty. Edges seemed very jagged and artifact'd as I recall.
