[QUOTE="Stoshowicz, post: 363473, member: 31397"] Actually this article is pretty good , but its fairly difficultly presented , does this say the best Fstop is always f11 at this point ? [COLOR=#000000][FONT=Times New Roman]To summarize, if D is the focus spread expressed in millimeters, then the [I]optimal f-stop [/I]which yields the sharpest possible image at the depth of field limits is N = sqrt(375 D). This works regardless of focal lengths, formats, and movements. The resulting resolution at the limits of depth of field (ie for your far and near points) cannot be improved in anyway and determine the maximum possible enlargment. Here are some tabulated values by whole fstops:[/FONT][/COLOR] [B]Table of optimal fstops (1)[/B] [/QUOTE]
