DEPTH 
OF 
FI

Depth 
of field 
is 
the 
distance 
from 
the 
nearest 
to 
the 
farthest 
objects 
that 
will 
appear 
sharp 
in 
the 
negative. 
It 
depends 
upon 
the 
distance 
between 
subject 
and 
lens, 
the 
focal  l
ength 
of 
the 
lens, 
and 
the size 
of 
the 
lens 
opening 
used; 
the 
smaller 
the 
opening 
the 
greater 
the 
range 
of 
sharpness. 
DEPTH 
OF 
FIELD 
SCALE 
A 
depth 
of 
field  scale 
is 
combined 
with 
the 
FOCUS
-
ING 
SCALE; 
this  tells 
at 
a  glance 
the 
depth 
that 
will be 
obtained 
at 
the 
distance focused 
on 
with 
the 
se
l
ected 
lens  opening. 
The 
depth 
of 
field  scale will 
be 
found 
convenient 
for 
photographing 
subjects 
ten 
feet 
or 
farther 
from 
the 
lens. 
Instead 
of 
using 
the 
RANGE 
FINDER, 
consult this  scale 
and 
estimate 
the 
distance to 
the 
subject. 
To 
find 
the 
Depth 
of 
Field 
for  a  given distance 
and 
stop 
opening, 
read 
the 
distances 
on 
the 
outside 
ring 
at 
the 
lines 
coming 
from 
the 
chosenj
/ 
number 
on 
the 
circul
ar 
scale. 
Example: 
If 
the 
camera 
is 
focused for 6 feet 
and 
j /5.6  is  used, 
Figure

everything 
from 
about
