Hello everyone,
just starting out with LF photography and recently acquired a wonderful Sinar F2. Now, I'm somewhat confused when it comes to determining the Plane of Focus and setting the Depth of Field. Here's my problem:
For both PoF and DoF, I use the methods as described in the Sinar F2 manual. But once I've set the PoF most of the image turns quite sharp (Scheimpflug rule). This makes it quite difficult to determine the optimum DoF/Aperture, since most of the image is already considerably sharp. How do you determine the DoF after setting the PoF?
I assume that I'm either making a mistake along the way or that my "concept" of finding the optimal aperture is wrong.
Thanks for your help everyone!
