    F-Stop Lesson for beginner

    Has anyone seen a lesson posted here that demonstrates how changing the f-stop/aperature affects the depth of field?

    I told a friend I would send him a lesson (i.e. -- an excercise that he could do) so he could learn about f-stops.

    I could probably design one easily/quickly, but I figured, "Surely such a valuable thing for novices already exists on photographyreview.com."

    Plus, I'm lazy.

    Plus, if I find the lesson here and send him the link, he will visit this web site, meet cool people and learn a ton!

    Anybody seen such a lesson here?

    Nice!

    Thanks for posting that link. I'd forgotten about that lesson. Web Photo School has good stuff!

    They sure do. I have been printing a lot of them off and putting them in a binder for future use!

    I knew it had to be here somewhere, but evidently I did not know the magic keywords to enter into the Search Forums box.

    Just out of curiosity, how did you find it?

    Thanks again.

    Thanks again.

    Scroll to the top of this page and click on the "How-tos" link under the Learn tab. Then scroll about half way down the page to where it says "Digital Camera Lessons" Click that and you're there.
