Depth of Field Calculator
Calculate depth of field for your camera settings. DOF determines how much of your image is in sharp focus.
DOF Factors
DOF increases with: smaller aperture (f/16), shorter focal length, greater distance
Wide aperture (f/1.8) = shallow DOF (blurry background). Small aperture (f/16) = deep DOF (landscape sharp).
Frequently Asked Questions
What is hyperfocal distance?
Focus at hyperfocal distance and everything from half that distance to infinity is acceptably sharp. Great for landscapes.
How do I get blurry backgrounds?
Use wide aperture (f/1.8-2.8), longer focal length (85mm+), get close to subject, and have distant background.
