I have been reading A User's Guide To The View Camera by Jim Stone, which seems very detailed, informative and well written. So far I have grasped the operation and set-up of the camera but am still struggling with depth of field as it relates to movements of the front and rear standards. HERE is a link to a large photo I really love and wonder how it was done. I especially like the front to back sharp focus and pose, and wonder if this was done at a smaller aperture to achieve the effect, or if movements were also needed. Another example is THIS photo that I also like that has a different and much shorter depth of field. Is this done without movements and a wide aperture alone? Thanks for any insight.
