Hi guys:

I've got a question that I could use your help. For a 1 person POV pt of view, or interview between 2 people, what's the best settings to use in capturing DOF similar to the following clip? (I understnand that most likely the clip may have used a different camera.)

Thanks!

You cannot have a similar DOF with NX5 alone. The clip was filmed with a DSLR camera.

And based on how shallow the dof is in some images I"m pretty sure it was a Canon 5D they used with a f1.4 lens.
