Hi All,
Hope you all are doing great.
I have a basic question on DOF.
I like to shoot landscapes so like to have maximum DOF upto infinity.
I know that using the hyperfocal distance for F/8 at 18 mm (HYper Focal distance 6.7 Ft) I can get DOF from 3.35 Ft to Infinity with my Sony DSLR.
Now if 3.35 FT near distance is acceptable focus starting point for my photos upto infinity then can I shoot my landscapes on f/8 at 18mm using hyperfocal distance?
My Question is If we can get maximum DOF upto infinity using hyper focal distance Even at F/8 on 18 mm then why at all we need high aperture values like F/16 or F/22?
I know using F/16 or F/22 on 18 mm at hyperfocal distance we can get closer near distance focus but that's negligible compare to F/8 on 18 mm.
I would like to know if there's any other advanges of using high aperture value.
My Camera: SONY DSLR A390
Lens: 18-55 mm
Cheers
