DOF
« on: April 06, 2008, 06:51:26 AM »

HI
My camera has a smallest aperture of f/8 – I understand that you need atleast f/16 to get a

good Depth of Field (DOF) – is there anything I can do to tweak DOF without opting for extra

lens so that I can have more DOF during landscape photos?
My Camera Sony DSC H2
Thanks

Besides aperture, focal length and distance the lens is from the subject can affect depth of field:
