What is depth of field?

Depth of field refers to the range of distance within a photo that appears sharp and in focus.

How does aperture affect depth of field?

A larger aperture (smaller f-number) results in a shallower depth of field, while a smaller aperture (larger f-number) increases it.

Can you give me an example of shallow depth of field?

Sure! A portrait with a blurred background while the subject is in focus is a classic example of shallow depth of field.

What are some techniques to achieve a greater depth of field?

To achieve greater depth of field, you can use a smaller aperture, increase the distance from the subject, or use a wide-angle lens.
