Not all P&S. The presets are usually called "focus free" and are very low end.

From: Chris Brogden <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> How do you account for the fact that p&s digital cameras can still blur the background for some portrait shots? With focal lengths around 7-12mm or so, pretty much everything should be in focus, shouldn't it?
Hmmm, okay, I am a camera/photography ignoramus, but I remember hearing in class or reading somewhere that P&S are preset for a certain focusing distance. Like about 15 feet or something like that (maybe less, maybe 10). Regardless of where your subject actually is.
Wouldn't that have something to do with it?
Marnie aka Doe Probably not, probably way off base. ;-)
