Better Fuji Photos Episode 40: Mastering Depth of Field - It's Not Just Aperture!
Maybe you've been there. You're wondering why your photo created at f/22 has a sharp foreground but a blurry background, even though it was at f/22. Or why your photo made at f/1.4 doesn't have a blurry background like f/1.4 photos should.
That's because, as educators, we've failed to emphasize how depth of field is equally affected by variables other than your aperture. Focal length, focus distance, and how the photo is viewed also affect your depth of field.
In this episode, we'll discuss how:
Wider focal lengths give you deeper depths of field
Further focus distances give you deeper depths of field
Smaller apertures give you deeper depths of field
And how all three combine to give you a final depth of field
