Moving Camera & Keeping Objects in Focus

I am making a scene where a camera is moving past several layers of objects that are supposed to look like building silhouettes. The camera movement stops in front of one of the layers. This final layer is in focus. All of the other layers stay in focus, but the one that needs to be in focus is blurry.
Please look at the images below:
This is what it looks like at the 6:10 mark. The layer in the front is blurry, all the others are in focus.
This is the top view at the 6:10 mark. That line just above the camera is the blurry foreground layer.
This is what it looks like at the 7:09 mark.
This is where the camera stops at the 10:00 mark, and it is pretty much in focus at this point.
What setting do I need to change so that the foreground layer stays in focus for pretty much the whole time, and maybe allows the layers in the distance to become blurry?
Thanks!

It's just like a real camera. Select your camera layer, press the "A" key twice to reveal the lens properties and then animate the focus distance and aperture to get the results you want.

    My iphone6 camera is rear , and focus dosnt work in it , although my front camera is working great

    Hey there Aydarezania,
    It sounds like you are able to focus using the front camera, but the back one doesnt seem to. I would use these troubleshooting steps from the following article, named:
    Get help with the camera on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    Force the app to close, then open the Camera app again.
    Restart your device, then open the Camera app again.
    Your photos are blurred or out of focus
    If your photos are blurred, out of focus, or have dark spots, try these steps:
    Make sure that the camera lens is clean. If you need to clean the lens, use a microfiber cloth. If you see dirt or debris inside the lens, take your device to an Apple Retail Store or Authorized Service Provider for more help.
    Make sure that there’s nothing blocking the camera lens. If you’re using a case, try removing it.
    With iPhone 6 Plus, a metallic case or magnetic lens could interfere with optical image stabilization. If you have a metallic case or magnetic lens attachment, try taking a picture without it. Then compare the quality.
    Adjust the focus by tapping on the person or object in the preview screen. You’ll see the screen pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as the camera adjusts. In photo mode, try to stay steady when adjusting the focus. If you move too far in any direction, the camera will automatically refocus to the center. In video mode, you can adjust the focus before you begin recording.
    If the color seems too bright, or you see double-exposures of moving objects, make sure that HDR is set to Auto or Off. Tap HDR at the top of the screen to choose a different setting.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Ssrs 2008 r2 keep objects in fixed locations when report is executing

    In an exisitng SSRS 2008 r2 report there are currently 5  tablixes. Right now in one of the tablixes, I am adding rectangles and textboxes to the one tablix. As I am adding these items to the SSRS 2008 r2 report, new items that I am adding to the report
    do not stay where I placed them originally. In addition, some of the other tablixes are moving around (floating).
    Thus may questions are the following:
    1. In one particular tablix, is there a way to anchor the rectangles and texboxes (keep them from floating)? If so, would you tell me how to keep fixed point locations?
    2. For all the tablixes on the report, is there a way to keep each tablix from flaoting (staying anchored to a fixed location? If so, would you tell me how to keep the various tablixes from floating?

    Hi wendy,
    Just as you said, the location of report items would be changed depends on the data in other items and page size. There are no such property that can directly make an item stayed at a fixed location. While, if the issue is caused by the page size, we can
    change it to an appropriate page size. If the issue is caused by other item data, we can try to use a rectangle to contain those items. Because rectangle is s object container, it can keep objects together on a page and control how object move and push each
    other. For more details, please see the following document:

    Hope this helps.

  • N95 - Does your camera clicks when auto focus (hal...

    N95 - Does your camera clicks when auto focus (half-pressed)?
    When i press the camera button half way through it makes a noticeable "click" noise after locking on an object.
    It doesn't make the clicking noise when i press the camera button one time without manually auto focus.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Yep, exactly that.
    Green - Focus lock acheived - OK to take picture and it should come out in focus.
    Red - No Focus lock - will still take a shot if you fully press shutter button though.Message Edited by luckieb on 27-Apr-200708:37 PM

  • N97 Video camera captures Blurred (Un-Focused) Vid...

    Hello,
    I have recently found out that my phone cant focus at all .. Using image mod, the camera manages to auto-focus and the images are amazing, but when it comes to video, its blurred !!
    For example, if I hold the camera 25cm above a paper, it wont pick up any words, it will only capture black lines
    The sentences are all blurred out. 
    If I take a video footage of a friend that is 1m away, the details are better BUT are still blurred
    Now the N97 has 5mega pixels and the N95 has 5mp as well, but my N95 captures sharp videos
    Can someone tell me how can I fix this issue ????
    Kind Regards,
    Z

    Added to the above :
    I have also noticed that when video recording, the audio keeps changing its volume !!! For example : I stand 2m away from the phone while its recording, and make a contineuous sound, the sound's volume increases and then suddenly dicreases so much that I can barely hear it
     After that, the volume increases again and the loop is reset.
    WHYYYY is that happening ? Is it a hardware error ? or is it a software problem ? 
    I have installed v2.0 after a hard-reset today hoping that it will fix it..but it didnt  
    Please help !!!!!

  • My facetime camera is out of focus

    My facetime camera is out of focus

    Is the lens clean? The front camera is fixed focus.
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Z1 compact camera keeps coming on automatically

    Hello,
    I'm having an issue where the camera keeps switching itself on while I am using other applications and even when phone is locked and placed on table.
    As you can imagine this is very frustrating, not only is it draining my battery but it makes tasks on my phone difficult... Taken me 3 minutes just to type the above as the camera takes over every few seconds. This has been happening for past 12 hours, not sure if it could be related to using under water a couple of days ago, maybe overheated as I'm in 30 degree heat, or maybe just a dodgy app is activating it in the background? I have restarted the phone and also the power and volume up button together but still having issues... Please help!!!

    Check your camera button isn't a bit sticky or pressed down slightly - You may also wish to consider a system repair and if that fails then you will probably need to have your device inspected - Either return this back to the place of purchase or contact Xperia care http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/support/contact-us/

  • Why does my iPhone camera keep telling me "Cannot take photo" there is not enough available storage to take a photo, etc? I have it hooked up to ICloud and the cameral roll???

    Why does my iPhone camera keep telling me "cannot take photo" there's not enough storage, but I have my phone/camera roll hooked up to Icloud and have purchased additional storage???

    iCloud storage has nothing to do with remaining memory on the phone - only memory for backups and Photostream.  The photo has to first be stored on the phone and copies sent to iCloud.  If there is not enough available memory on the phone, the photo can't be taken.
    To determine the remaining memory on the phone:
    Settings > General > Usage > Storage
    The Camera Roll is meant for temporary storage of photos, which should be imported to an app on your computer and deleted from Camera Roll.  You can then sync back those photos which you want to keep on the phone.

  • Camera keeps freezing up

    I have an Iphone 4 and the camera keeps freezing up. I have other apps for taking pictures as well and they too freeze up. Sometimes i can take one pic before it happens and other times cant take a pic at all. It was working fine for 6 months.

    Hello Bevy73,
    I would recommed sections 1, 3, and 5 of the iPhone Troubleshooting Assistant found here http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/phone/#section_1.
    Here is the first section of it to get you started.
    Restart iPhone
    To restart iPhone, first turn iPhone off by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until a red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider and iPhone will turn off after a few moments.
    Next, turn iPhone on by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Is iPhone not responding? To reset iPhone, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
