What is the depth of field?

When you focus on a specific subject, there is a range in which objects closer and further away are all in focus. This focused range is called the depth of field.

The wider the wide-angle lens, the higher the aperture value, the greater the depth of field. For example, the aperture stop, f 11 is higher than f 2.8.

When you are not using the depth preview function, you can only see the subject through the camera in the condition of the maximum aperture (minimum f-number) in the shooting mode. Use the Depth of Field Preview function before taking a picture to view the depth of field of the scene as it looks with the lens set to its current f-stop number.
