I would say killerbee pretty much has it all summed up. Any lens will let you mess with depth of field, that is controlled by the aperture. The an aperture of f/2.0 will have a much shallower depth of field than an f/22 assuming you are using the same lens in both instances. As Killerbee stated, your distance from the subject as well as the focal length also plays a big role on depth of field as well. My recommendation is that if you get a DSLR, get a good lens and go out and experiment with it. this way you learn your equipment better and you get to see how different variables affect the picture.
