[QUOTE="Fred Kingston, post: 592798, member: 10742"] Older lenses used to have a DOF scale on them that you could manually focus to... but alas, they won't work with that camera. In fact, without a DOF preview on that camera, it's even more difficult... Your best bet is to understand the DOF of your lenses Fstop, prefocus on a specific object within the same plane as your intended subject... and go from there... You can also lookup the parameters on a DOF app in a smart phone, and pre-set your camera... You can also make your own cheat sheet using trial and error, or a DOF app. for your specific lenses... I find shooting landscapes, I usually end up with f11+ and infinity... [/QUOTE]
