I talked with some peoples and they said that I have to shot at f/13 or f/16 to get acceptable depth of field. I checked it out -- he was right." One of the many lesser known uses of A-DEP mode is to conduct experiments to determine these parameters for specific situations. For instance, set up where you want to take portraits from and, at the desired focal length, use A-DEP to focus 1. on eyes of subject, then 2. on ears of subject (if thats what you want sharp. In some instances it may be the nose and eyes, or an ear and far cheek. Then check the aperture the camera gives you. You may then want to open or close an extra stop or two for flexibility or effect as desired. As with many things, a little thought before jumping in sometimes pays big dividends.
