I have read the resources available on the LF home page about dof and optimal sh arpness techniques and have a question. I am new at this so please correct me i f i'm incorrect. I've learned to always set focus at the largest aperture possi ble ie., 5.6 for brightness reasons. But for example after using procedure 1 an d/or 2 (found on the LF home page) how is the aperture determined to keep dof. Since DOF and sharpness or a priority should the scene be metered relying on exp osure time only. Example if after taking appropriate readings you determine tha t you should expose for 1/30th at f8, but feel that you need more dof and need f 16 you could just adjust the exposure time right? How do you know the best aper ture for DOF, that is the real question.
Thank you very much!
