Hi,

If someone can either lay it out in an easy to understand manner as it pertains to the K10D and various lenses for the following terms I would be forever grateful.

I tried searching and googling and everything I am finding is way too technical for my newbie brain or it talks about settings on a camera I don't have or know.

Can the following be explained (and if you can relate it to the K10D and its settings that woudl be super)

Depth of Field
Aperature (why 2.8 for some, why 22 for others, why in the middle)
Focal Length
Shutter Speed

I just want my shots to look sharp and good.


I thought I was doing the right thing the other day and yet my shots are not exactly how I would have liked them.

I shot a car show and found that I had a lot of out of focus areas that I had hoped would be in focus.

So obviously I am not getting it ..... if someone could just explain to me these elements in a way it relates to my camera I would appreciate it.

(or if there is a site that I can go to....)
