Lens For Canon 60d

Mark asks…How can i blur or soften the background for Canon 60D. Which mode and lens to use?I have been using my Canon 60d for a month now, i'm loving it. But i want to take pictures with soft background.mr.eos answers:You could spend a bundle on a lens designed for portraiture or set your camera on shutter priority and set the f/stop manually. Learn "depth of field". Use the widest lens opening and corresponding shutter speed for a correct exposure. Use of the digital equivalent to 135mm
