    Re: Aperture question - Scheimpflug - Portraits / Portraiture

    Hi,

    Thank you for your messages and book recommendations : )!!! I really appreciate them!

    It is really a relief that I don't have to worry about having a LF format camera with
    movements when my main interest is photographing single individuals or small groups.
    I just need to focus and add depth of field.

    As I mentioned, it caught my attention because lower aperture values were used, or so
    I recall it, and my f-stop does not go below f/22. So, that the instructor at that time
    talked about using aperture values such as f/5,6 and f/8 appealed to me, as it would
    appeal to me now.

    I will read more into it and get back to you.

    Thank you again, kind regards,

    Ig Nacio : )!!!

    P.D. An interesting portrait in the following link. Please notice the description,
    it is not f/5,6, nor f/8, but f/11, what I find quite good. One does not need to
    go to f/16 or f/22 for a portrait:
