  • Will an 18-55 on a Rebel T3 work? Upcoming birthday gift and I'm just wondering.

  • @CrappyVlog not as well

  • Thanks for this! Do you have a tutorial for canon 60D?:-)

  • @dopeyfries No we don't own any other canon cameras. However, the process and controls are going to be effectively the same across the range.

  • Kinda bumbed, I just bought the camera and thought I could get this effect with the kit lense, now i have to spend more money =(

    But great video nevertheless. thanls

  • @jehfree562 You can to some extend create this effect with the kit lens. Your best option would be to use the information in this video - play with your settings and see what you can do!

  • he has confusions with aperture,shutter n ISO.........all these elements together called as an exposure......he uses d word exposure for shutter its a huge mistake......greater depth of fied can be acheived by using lower f stop means wide opening of the aperture...........

  • what's the difference between Canon 550D and Canon550D body ?

  • nyc one....but which camera did u use to shoot this video??

  • which Tripod is that mate?

  • Tutorial kinda starts at around 9:50

  • talks toooooooo much!!!!!! 

  • If you have a Canon DSLR and you change the lenses on it, then you probably already know how to create shallow DOF or (BOKEH!!!)

  • This is not the correct way to do this, you should keep your shutter setting to 50 to keep a film 'look' rather than it looking like nice video. You should use an Neutral Density filter to bring down the light level to allow you to run the lens iris wide or near to wide open.
