I am shooting 3/4 people on 8x10 with a 360mm Schneider lens.
I am aiming the camera from eye level at the subject at a 25 degree angle at 7 ft. away.Both standards are parallel.I was exposing at f 16 with strobe.The subject had his hands crossed across his belt area.I focused on the eyes and all was in focus that was on the same plane ie.face ,shirt jeans.The only out of focus was mid forarm down to the hands.
To get all in focus what camera movement is appropriate or just stop down more.
The bulk will be done in available light w/trix @200 in open shade.
I am thinking 22.5 might work because of people and low light is my limit for shutter speed.I have no polaroid capability.
Do images with people close get less sharp at apertures beyond f22.
