MAKING USE OF THE DEPTH OF FIELD

When you have a subject in focus, there is a range

in the fore and the background which is clearly

defined in the picture. This range is called depth

of field. The larger the F number becomes, the

wider this clearly defined range becomes, and

the background becomes sharper. On the con-

trary, the smaller the F number becomes, this

range

becomes

less

wide,

while

the

background

loses contrast and out of focus. By using these

properties of the depth of field with creativity

and imagination, you will be able to take pic-

tures

which

will

have

your

own

personal

im-

print.
