    Eyelight's Technique 52 for 2015

    EV 0 Yeahhhhh. Those -EVs are a bit time consuming, but now climbing up into the relatively fast speeds of only a few seconds. Here's the EV 0 f/stop & shutter combinations. These are calculated values and will vary slightly from the printed tables you see online and in books. f/stop 1.0...

    Eyelight's Technique 52 for 2015

    1:1 at f/36 Versus 1:2 at F/8 Cropped

    Something here I tried to point out a few posts (pages back). First, I'll reiterate that calculations get you to the ballpark, but then comes subjectivity. Here is the formula for calculating close focus DOF using f/stop, magnification and CoC (same as shown on Wikipedia): Here then are...

    Snap-on ratcheting screwdriver fan!

    Not taking anything away from the wonder of a ratcheting screwdriver, but this little screw-driving ratchet will drive a screw when nothing else will. Also has a 1/4" socket drive on the flip.

    DoF v Diffraction with the Nikkor 40mm Micro 2.8G

    What I was after is seeing where the gain in DoF is overwhelmed by diffraction. We hear and see a lot about it, but the real world exist in my head, so here we are. The first series shown in post #1 was shot with the focus set to the minimum which extends the the lens and increases the focal...

    1:1 at f/36 Versus 1:2 at F/8 Cropped

    Just continuing the discussion in a different place since it had more to do with macro work. My thinking is either method has it's place in the toolbox and one may work better than the other on a given subject with a given camera/lens. Change the camera and/or lens or the subject and...
