Focusing Point


Hi,

As I am a regular landscape photographer, maximizing the depth of field (DOF) is crucial. My problem is, I own only one lens at the moment (its Nikkor AF 24-120mm) and this lens seem to have no marking for distance for me to know the DOF and yet to determine the hyperfocal distance.

Is there any other method to get the hyperfocal distance? a table or such??

Thanks.

  Try setting your camera to your smallest aperture or one larger. Focus a third of the way into the landscape and take the picture - you should be okay. Use a tripod in case you need a long shutter speed. good luck.
