PROGRAM TITLE: Understanding Hyperfocal Distance and Depth of Field
March 14th, 7pm, via Zoom
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: We’ve all been there before – a beautiful
vista, a magnificent sunset, a breathtaking landscape – and we’re trying to get
all the foreground and distant objects in focus. But it’s a struggle. If I make the background crisp, the
foreground is soft. And in reverse, it’s
the same thing. So I pick a spot a third
of the way into the scene. Nope, I just
can’t get everything sharp.
If this sounds familiar, then you’re ready to learn about
hyperfocal distance and depth of field.
A little apprehensive about trying to learn “technical stuff”? Not to worry…this presentation is geared for
simplicity. Numerous examples will be dissected using some simple charts and
appsto explore why specific camera settings work or don’t work and how
adjustments can be made to maximize image sharpness.
