Depth of Field
When you shoot at a certain aperture and focusing distance, you will find that not only the main subject but objects in a cer- tain distance range in front of and behind it will be sharp in the final photograph . Objects beyond this range become increas- ingly out of focus . This
The following is true of depth of field :
1)The smaller the shooting aperture (i.e. the larger the numeri- cal
2)The farther away the subject is from the lens, the deeper the' depth of field becomes; the closer to the lens, the shallower the depth of field .
3)The longer the focal length of a lens, the shallower the depth of field at each f/stop ; the shorter the focal length, the deeper the depth of field .
4)There is greater depth of field behind the main subject than
in front of it.
The depth of field at each aperture is indicated on the lens by a set of
