I'm sure it is a rhetorical question but whatyoudo is use a 35mm f2 or a 55mm f1.8 and shoot wide open. At 10 ft. the 35mm would give you a 2' area of DOF. At 15 ft. a 50mm would give you 1.5' of DOF (in the case of a f1.4) or 1.83' (in the case of a f1.7) http://www.dofmaster.com/dofjs.html :) -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: PESO -- Brass Penny
Loved the picture and thought the helmet made for an interesting past/present contrast. Biggest problem for me was the background, over which photog had no control other than maybe blurring (i,e bouquet) Date: Thu, 15 Apr 2010 12:04:08 -0400 From: "Ken Waller" To: "Pentax-Discuss Mail List" Subject: Re: PESO -- Brass Penny Message-ID: <011d01cadcb5$48edb650$ac24e...@kena60ebc3b689> Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed; charset="iso-8859-1"; reply-type=response Kenneth Waller http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/kennethwaller - Original Message - From: "P.

At least an anachronism, in this case. Very much like the combination of the bike and tree. Too bad not isolated. Jack --- On Thu, 4/15/10, P. J. Alling wrote: > From: P. J.
