Hi Gens and Ladies


RIGHT! I am up to a stage that stuck at this two technical issue..... D.O.F and hyperfocal Distance..


D.O.F, from what i undersatnd is.... the bigger aperture ( smaller F) will have shallower D.O.F then smaller aperture (bigger f). But i don't understand WHY a Crop body need to stand further away to get more D.O.F than a Full Frame.

on the other side.... hyperfocal disatance.. mmmm not really understand..


hope anyone could give me a tutorial with Pictures and explanations so i can understand more easily...


Thank you very much~~~
Good question.
Not sure about the DX/FX syndrome either.
Have a look / read the bottom. GOOGLE, is a powerful tool.

Both explain with diagrams.

Here is the explanation for DOF on a DX / FX.
