DEPTH OF FIELD
A depth of field scale is engraved around the focusing knob of the Yashica cameras next to the distance scale. It is
thus quite a simple matter to read off what area will be in sharp focus for any distance setting and aperture. With the
camera focused on 8 ft. (top) the depth of field indicated by the scale for an aperture of f8 is from a little under 7ft. to
about 10ft. With the camera focused on 30 ft. (bottom) the depth of field at an aperture of f 16 extends from about 14
ft. to infinity.
COMPOSITION
MASS AND TONE. Simplicity is the keynote of many a successful picture. A simple arrangement of shapes on a
delicately-toned backcloth can be appealing.
