[QUOTE="Don Kuykendall_RIP, post: 147576, member: 6277"] I think we are saying the same thing but I just don't want to confuse the OP The closer you are to the subject the Less DOF you have The further away you are from the subject the More DOF you have Go to [url=http://www.dofmaster.com/dofjs.html]Online Depth of Field Calculator[/url] and play with the different numbers. That will show you how distance, Aperture and focal length can change the DOF you are getting. Play with only one at the time and watch the numbers. Greater distance and lower Aperture can give you the same DOF as less distance and larger Aperture. Then we get into perspective which is what makes your nose look really big when someone puts a camera right in your face and shoots. [LEFT][COLOR=#000000] [/COLOR][/LEFT] [/QUOTE]
