I tried using single and focus on the middle lady but the rest goes out of focus between F2.8 - F8. All will be in focus after F10 and above. I want a good bokeh or blurred background and all subjects in focus. How do I do that ? Thanks ! Hi there,

And you surely can't go wrong with either a Canon or Nikon. Canon's Rebel XSI is a great choice, plus it comes with a Image Stabilization 18-55mm lens included in the kit. Another camera to consider is the Nikon D60. Both of these cameras average around your $800 budget. Both of these cameras perform well, and give excellent image quality. @JO – Your definitely right, there are a lot of great cameras out there today.
