    Of course you can use movements to increase depth of field or to reduce depth of field (the latter of which Christopher was alluding to).

    If I were to try portraiture I would try reducing the DOF. Maybe it's me, But I have always wanted to create the type of image where the face is sharp but the body blurry. Sometimes the model is vertical (sitting or standing) sometimes lying down with their face and shoulders close to the camera as their body is progressively further from the camera. I would probably try an old single coated 240mm Rodenstock apo ronar which people seem to be giving away these days compared to ten years ago.

    I ended up shooting a 8x10 Sinar with a 4x5 back. It sure takes two to operate this thing Can hardly wait to see the negatives.
