The S7 does have a mode called selective focus which lets you adjust the focus between foreground and background, but I didn't use it for this image. The camera also has a "pro" mode that lets you control a lot of settings, but aperture is not one of them. It has a fixed aperture of f/1.7 which, when you get up close, gives a narrow depth of field as shown in this image. Overall, the S7 camera is pretty decent considering it is in a phone. It is a better camera than I have in some compact point and shoots. :-) -Earl
