People are talking about two different things:

1. DEP mode

This is a way to sample two points in the image, and have the
camera determine the focus and the largest aperture that will get
those points in "focus".  It determines an exposure for you,
and this is not shiftable on the high-end cameras for mysterious
reasons.

2. Depth-of-field preview

This a way to push a button and have the lens stop down.  You can
change the aperture while you're doing this, but this is not what we
refer to as shifting.
