I can't seem to get my aperture right

[justphotos]

It seems like no matter how much I experiment with different apertures, it never comes out right. Any thoughts or suggestions?

does your camera have a depth of field preview button?

I don't know. I probably do, i just don't know it by that name. I have a nikon 6006 (F-601) SLR

If in doubt use f8. For anything wider than f5.6 you have to be carefull where you focus.

Google "hyperfocal distance" and learn about ranges?
