Aperture Priority and Depth of Field

Jeff Galbraith writes, "The term depth of field refers to how much of your picture is in sharp focus. For example, in portrait shots you will notice that the background is often blurred and soft looking, while the subject is clear and sharp. Pictures like this have a shallow depth of field. You have probably also noticed that in landscape shots everything in the picture is often sharp and clear, all the way from the dead tree in the foreground to the mountains off in the distance. Pictures like this have a deep depth of field."          Full Article

In such scenes the photographer can use techniques such as manual focusing or focusing on another object in the same distance and panning the camera."         Full Article
