HELP Outdoor Group Portrait

On Sunday some friends want me to shoot a group portrait of 20 people. What setting should I use to make sure all the people are in focus?

Nikon D80 with 17-50mm 2.8f

Thanks

depending on lighting and how close you can set the folks together F 5.6 to F-10 would be a good starting place.

Why not try several different setting or F stops. You need to take several any way so you can pick the best one out of the bunch. You might also want to use some fill flash, Jeff

Hey Jimmy,
Living down here in So. Cal near Palm Springs. How is good ole Wa? Still riding with the BBTC?
