💡 Photography Tips

  • Wider apertures (lower f-number) create shallower DoF — great for portraits with blurred backgrounds.
  • Longer focal lengths compress DoF — telephoto lenses have noticeably shallower DoF at the same aperture.
  • At the hyperfocal distance, everything from half that distance to infinity is acceptably sharp — ideal for landscapes.
  • Smaller sensors (APS-C, M4/3) have deeper DoF than full frame at equivalent field of view.
