[QUOTE="Rick M, post: 303537, member: 4399"] Cambridge in color has some interesting pages on this. This is why it's important to know your specific len's performance and characteristics at different focal lengths. You may need f8 on a 300mm telephoto for DoF, you'll rarely need more than f5.6 on a 16mm ultra-wide. Too many times folks use small apertures when not needed, slows the shutter and allows diffraction. Greater pixel density just compounds this user error. [/QUOTE]
