I took this picture of my daughter and her closest eye to the camera is in focus and the other is oof. With her head turned like that, is it possible to get both eyes in focus???

It was 2.8. It was getting dark and I didn't want to increase my iso, which was at 400. Would it have been better to increase my iso and use a deeper dof?

ok you would need a smaller aperture... and then you want your AF(if you use it) to be set to multi AF instead of single AF... that should fix it...

You probably have your aperture at 1.8/f Close your aperture down to around 3.2-4/f and see how that goes, adjusting your shutter speed to compensate of course.

I can guarantee it was NOT at 1.8. I refuse to go down any further than 2.8!! :lol:
