Just grabed a shot that shows more or less the lighting. I focused manually on the guitar, but as you can see, the stuff in the back ground is in perfect focus, using my eye not the focus confirmation info.. Look at the green guitar. I use a Nikon 18-70 inside for my equine shots(flash ) and the lighting is almost non existent, but get a decent success rate. I don't know why all of these were off. At first i thought it was just low shutter speeds and motion blur, but then i noticed all the back grounds we;re OOF. II shot at f 1.7/2 most of the time so i should have shallow DOF.
