You can fake less DoF but not more. The popular 'miniature effect' is what John was referring to, not the more constructive use of the Scheimpflug effect to increase DoF. -Adam On Fri, Sep 17, 2010 at 1:44 PM, J.C. O'Connell wrote: > impossible. you cant change image DOF after the fact. > you ma

RE: 50 and 90mm Tilt-shift lenses from Schneider Kreuznach ...

impossible. you cant change image DOF after the fact. you may be able to do some minor fiddling but if the fstop was near wide open and not tilted to match a tilted subject, there is no way to get the suject totally in focus without a tilt used at time of exposure. -- J.C. O'Connell (mailto:hifis.

RE: 50 and 90mm Tilt-shift lenses from Schneider Kreuznach ...

From: "J.C. O'Connell" Yeah, PS can fix perspective without a shifting lens. But there is no way to later emulate lens tilt which selectively alters the plane of focus with PS. That has to be done with the lens tilt in camera. Actually you can do that in Photoshop too. Google "photoshop lensba

WTB: Camera bag

I'm looking for a very small camera bag. Older the better as long as it's still usable. Looking for something to fit my Pentax Program Plus with 50mm attached, a couple rolls of film, a filter or two and maybe (but not necessarily) a second small lens. I don't want velcro, I do want some padding
