No, that is not what was stated. That statement you cite was only relating to DOF on the film, NOT to DOF on the print. I am curious about something, regarding the 'print DOF'. Won't objects that are 'larger' 'appear' to be sharper than smaller objects? If so, then shouldn't the DOF calculations have a stated object size/distance (to other objects) to actually make these DOF 'tables' more 'accurate' (what ever accurate is in this case)? - -------------------------------------------------------------------- Mail2Web - Check your email from the web at http://www.mail2web.com/ .
