Hi all!
I came across DoFMaster the other day and I decided to play with its DoF chart thingy. I put in the values for EF 50mm f/1.8 II, a lens I'm thinking of buying (effective focal length of 80mm because of sensor crop on my camera; circle of confusion of 0.019mm.) The resulting table kinda surprised me. According to it at f/2, even focusing at something 2m away the depth of field would be 4cm (starts at 1.98m, ends at 2.02m). The figures sound more reasonable when in smaller apertures. But still... Am I interpreting it correctly? If so, is this true in real life or is the table screwed up?
Thanks!
