[QUOTE="brianf, post: 490141, member: 40542"] Hi, I,m new to DSLRs and also to this forum, so pardon me for appearing slow off the mark. I read a lot of photo books and there is one issue which I do not understand. I have a D3300 with a 28-80 G series 3.5-5.6 lens. I focus manually. Taking a landscape shot at f5.6 my shutter speed will be about 1/250th sec. at ISO 200 say. If I wind the aperture up to f22 to take advantage of a greater depth of field and get everything nice and. sharp the shutter speed will come down to say 1/60th. But am I really shooting at f22? = or is this beyond the limit of the aperture of the lens, and what I end up with is really f5.6 and a overexposed picture. brianf [/QUOTE]
