Between 6 and 10 feet is the critical area, since life at f/1.4 can be nasty there. Here, it's long by 2-2.5 inches, but CONSISTENTLY so: if I focus on your eyes, your multiple ear piercings will be crisper than your eyes. Again, this is consistent behaviour, so I treat the split image as a marker of where the beginning of the zone of focus is, and assume I'll get the 4-6cm behind that point in focus. So if I want your eyes in focus, I nail the stud that pierces the tip of your outstretched tongue. If nothing in the foreground is convenient, just roll back a mite from what you want. >> What if I'm not an adept of piercing ? Jo Goodtimes , France . Live Free or Die.
