Originally posted by throndor Read a couple of texts but still not sure of some issues..
1- So there is no way to get things in focus from 1 inches to infinity? (i've seen some photos where they shot the beach boulders and the sea, both of which were pretty in focus?)
A very short focal length lens may come close. Cokin, and I am sure others, used to make half glass close-up diopters specifically for this. The diopter covered a portion of the lens and allowed for very a very long depth of field. I don't know if they still make them or not.
2- When my hyperfocal distance is longer than 2 meters, how do i focus on something that is at that distance.. The lens just focuses on things nearer than 2 metres and the rest is just "infinity".. so how is focusing on something at 4 meters and 30 meters different?
Manual focus.
