Hey all. After a few suggestions to have a look here:http://www.dofmaster.com/dofjs.html, i have a question. If for example I am shooting my 50 1.4 and I am using an AP of f3.6 and I am standing 10' away......Is my minimum focus distance 9.25 feet and my maximum 10' 9"? I am not sure I am understanding the DOF calculator correctly. I want to take better pics with my 50 1.4 and achieve sharp focus on my subjects. I do not understand how far away or close I should be. Thanks for you help!:D

Yes, the DOF will extend from 9.25ft to 10.9ft, a depth of 1.63ft. Rgds

read further down the page. There are good examples that explain and show you what is meant in the text.

I have this program on my phone. Really a valuable tool (if I remember to use it :lol:)
