Hello there!

I am a new member of this forum.
This past summer I’ve rediscovered my long lost love: Photography.
These days I’m trying to refresh my knowledge (also long lost)

..

Could someone please clarify the DIFFERENCE between Depth of Field and Depth of Focus?

English is not my first language and I am not good with definitions, but to me, they are the same.

Tnx in advance!

I always thought they were the same thing.
