Depends on your model .You can zoom in a bit to make the field smaller or get closer to subject .

Tell us a little more about the camera. If it is a point and shoot, there is generally no way to change it as the camera automatically choses the settings.
If, you have several rings on the lens (f stop and focus) you can adjust the f stop to the lowest number (2.8, 4, etc.) which will give you a very shallow depth of field. The larger the number f8, f11, f16) will give you more depth of field.
As you decrease the f stop you have to adjust the shutter speed to compensate for more light coming into the lens. You generally lower the speed by one click for every one click on the f stop ring.

That depends on which camera you are using. AN SLR lens will have an aperture ring, which opens and closes the lens letting in more light or less light. If you open the lens wide open (lowest "f Stop") then the depth of view (I think this is what you probably mean) will be very shallow. Your subject will be in focus and the background will be out of focus. Hope this helps.

I'm not sure I understand you - to decrease the field of view, simply zoom in more!

Do you mean, how can you make the background fuzzy? (depth of field control) See http://www.members.aol.com/swf08302/dragonfly.jpg
Use the widest lens opening you can. (smaller numers = wider opening)

Try taping the inside of a toilet rool to you camera
