[QUOTE="nickt, post: 142564, member: 4923"] Like SS said above, check the focus modes. The focus modes don't necessarily have to be the same, but your focus point must fall on your subject. It sounds like in manual mode, your focus point was on something in the background. That would cause the opposite effect of what you are looking for, making the subject blur and the background sharp. So however you acquire focus in manual mode, make sure your focus point is on the subject and the background should blur as it does in guide mode with other settings the same. [/QUOTE]
