[QUOTE="hark, post: 744040, member: 13196"] I use a cell phone app that shows the DoF based on the body, focal length of the lens, aperture , and distance from camera to subject. Since I don't know all the exact specifics, I chose a Nikon DX body, 55mm lens, and f/16 as the specs to use as the example below being 12" away from the subject (this was the app called [B]Simple DoF[/B] which I believe is a paid app). Keep in mind there is a greater area of sharpness behind the focus point than there is in front of it which is why it's best to focus about 1/3 of the way into your subject/scene. But based on the specs I used, the area of focus that will be reasonably sharp is less than 3/4". So if you are shooting subjects that have have some depth to them, focus stacking might be your best option like Sparky mentioned. [ATTACH type="full" width="30%"]346021._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
