It's an awkward one...

I can see by your response to the answers on here that you don't have a decent enough grasp on what actually influences what you are trying to do...it isn't actually that difficult...and i'd advise you to invest in a decent photography guide book as a source of reference...you'll get an in depth explanation and it will be illustrated with images to help you understand which lens would be better and why...and it will illustrate the advantages of using lenses with a 'faster' aperture...all this helps you realise the direction that you are heading in...the only thing you have to worry about is finding the resources to pay for your kit...or someone that's willing to provide the kit for you.

Thank you for your information and your time. You say "with the camera lens wide open." This means zoomed all the way OUT or IN? and also, i want to keep the entire car in frame with some foreground in front of the car in focus as well. (like the example link) Do I need to buy a new lens? and What do you recommend on a budget if so. Thanks! hope to hear back

You want a shallow depth of field. You get that by having;

- widest aperture (lowest f number)

- camera close to subject and background much further away

- longer focal length

So with your kit lens try;

55mm

f5.6 (widest it will go at this focal length

Get as close as you can to the car to frame it and make sure the background is MUCH further away.

If its not shallow enough for you then invest in a faster lens like the 50mm f1.8.

I was desperately looking for a good photography video course... I found this one that I liked a lot: http://www.goobypls.com/r/rd.asp?gid=557

It's very well made and explained and it helped me a lot with my hobby (my pictures look really professional now!)
