First, your newsletter is just terrific. I have been shooting a lot on faithful. I turn sharpness to one. But I have found the touch ups are easier in that mode. I do mostly beach stuff. So bright almost all the time. I shoot manual 12 10 16 12. I am certainly no a pro and each time is a true learning experience. PS ISO 400.

Larry: By small aperture, they mean one with a larger number. Aperture numbers work in reverse. If your lens has an aperture range of f2 to f22, f2 (or whatever the smallest aperture number your lens has) is wide open and will provide the shallowest depth of field, while and f22 (or the largest aperture number your lens has) is the smallest opening and will provide the greatest depth of field. Hope this helps.

Ok, I love your tips but, now I’m a bit confused. I just finished watching a tutorial on “Depth of field” in it, it stated that you should use a “small Apature” to achieve blur in your background. You are saying to use a “small Apature” to acquire focus on entire shot. I understand that the smaller your Apature setting, the wider your lens opens. So, it seems I am getting conflicting information. Thanks
