Thanks for your help fellow Wiltshireton!
I dont know i'm referring to what i read online i.e.
I. Focal length of the lens
The depth of field is inversely proportional to the focal length of the lens; that is, the smaller the focal length number of the lens, the greater the depth of field. For example, a 28mm lens has the ability...
Ok but if f stop is the focal length divided by the diameter of the aperture then
in relation to this, increasing the size of the focal length will increase the f
stop (increase DOF).... but this is wrong because increasing the focal length decreases the DOF (so i've read).
I understand what...
I'm not a photographer, but a 3d visualiser (http://www.willusher.com) trying to get my head
around 'f stop' and 'depth of field' - something is confusing me and
i'm wondering if someone could help me out.
THIS IS HOW I UNDERSTAND IT:
Increasing the f stop increases the DOF.
If f stop is the...
