Depth of Field Demystified: A Comprehensive Guide to the Physics and Applications of Depth of Field in Photography

Delving into the science behind depth of field

Depth of field (DoF) is a crucial aspect of photography that plays a significant role in image composition, visual storytelling, and creative control. DoF refers to the range of distances within a scene that appears acceptably sharp and in focus. Objects in front of or beyond this range are blurry to varying degrees. By understanding the physics behind DoF and…
