I'd like to write a program to make these calculations, mostly for fun, thou I might find it more useful then the sight.

Still interested in the mathematics behind it. Just for the Math nerdiness. Primary Gear - M6 Mark II; Σ f/1.4 Trio (16, 30, 56) - Σ 150-600mm f/5 - 6.3 C

It would probably run faster on my iPhone the loading this page would w/o wifi connection. So is anyone aware of the Algorithm? Or even have some information on how to calculate DOF Don actually posts the formulas he uses right on the site. Scroll down past the green box and you'll see Jon
