by the IRIS parameter
Smaller F-value (opening the iris) narrows
the range that is in focus. Larger F-value
(narrowing down the iris) widens the range
that is in focus. Open the iris to blur the
background, or narrow down the iris to
sharpen the whole image.
* Even if you open the IRIS wider (a smaller
F value) than F3.4 when you set the zoom lever
to the W (Wide angle) side, the IRIS is reset
to F3.4 as you move the zoom lever to the T
(Telephoto) side.
