[QUOTE="Rexer John, post: 146848, member: 12691"] The smaller the aperture (higher number) the greater the depth of field. Depth of field is the distance from the closest perceived focussed point the the furthest. For slow shutter speeds, a remote release is worth having, even with a sturdy tripod. If you do use a smaller aperture your shutter speed will be a lot slower. Accept the fact you will be shooting at slower shutter speeds instead of increasing the ISO which would result in "noisy" pictures. EDIT: Oh, and if you are tempted to go to the smallest aperture, you wont get pictures as sharp as around f8 to f11. You may also get star points from bright reflective points on your subject at very small apertures. [/QUOTE]
