OK, much easier. But it's difficult to see when infinity will actually be sharp. I only involve myself in the math in order to get better photographs. I often miss out on the close by sharpness in a landscape photograph, by setting the distance to near infinity, which is not at all necasarry. All the best

When in doubt, stop down a stop or two. My desire is to make pictures, not get involved with mathematics. Bill ------ Agreed. I've been waiting for a math update for my brain. But one has never arrived, so I guess I am stuck with the original defective and buggy wetware I was born with. Marnie aka Doe I don't know, the DOF preview actually doesn't do much for me. I really, really wanted it when I didn't have it, but now I hardly ever find myself using it. OTOH, maybe I am not really seeing what it's supposedly telling me. I'll try it again.
