Do you set hyperfocal or focus a different way?

[QUOTE="hark, post: 239616, member: 13196"] Me too. :( I still have a couple of older Nikon D lenses from my 35mm camera which have it but wish the newer ones would include it again. :) How far you focus into a scene is what I was after, @[URL="http://nikonites.com/member.php?u=4399"]Rick M[/URL]. Thanks for the info! I am wondering exactly where to focus for wide angle shots so I appreciate knowing you focus about 1/3 into the scene. :cool: I do know that wide angle lenses have smaller apertures. For those who don't know, divide the length of the lens' mm by the f-stop...so a 20mm lens shot at f/4 has an aperture diameter of 5mm compared to a 200mm lens shot at f/4 which has an aperture diameter of 50mm. I never really shot any landscapes with a wide lens so I just wanted to be sure how to achieve the greatest DOF. Hmm...an app! :cool: Since I don't have a smartphone, maybe I'll download this app to my ipod which I carry with me quite often. It sounds like it will fit the bill and will tell me the specifics of DOF which will be immensely helpful especially since the newer lenses lack the hyperfocal marking. Cool! :D Thank you all! ;) [/QUOTE]
