THIS IS HOW THE LENS IS MADE

This Video shows you how Optical glass lenses for the Camera are made, from a block of Optical glass to the finished product six weeks later. The Video is nine minutes and twenty seconds long.

DEPTH OF FIELD

Depth of field is about how much of the picture is in sharp focus, and how much of the picture is not in focus. If a subject is in sharp focus then objects in front of and behind the subject, may also be in acceptable focus, this in-focus area is the depth of field.

If you are doing Landscape Photography you would want the total picture in sharp focus, from foreground to background (see this in the above photo.) however if you are doing Portrait Photography you would want the subject in sharp focus and the background out of focus.

To have maximum depth of field, everything in sharp focus, you must set the lens to it's smallest aperture (lens opening) f/16 or f/22, this is good for Landscapes etc. At the opposite end with the aperture set to f/2.8 depth of field may be a distance of a few feet. (selective focus) this is good for portraits.

The aperture you select is important to depth of field settings, so too is distance, the further away you focus from the camera position, the more the depth of field. For Scenic, Landscape Photography, focus on a point one third into the picture, this means if the most distant object in the picture (Infinity) is one mile away from the camera, focus on a point one third of a mile away.
Never focus on Infinity.

ABOUT ZOOM LENSES.

If you are thinking about buying a Digital Camera with a zoom lens, try to get a 3X Optical Zoom that is 28mm on the wide end (35mm photography), and 105mm on the tele end(35mm photography). 28mm is the perfect lens for People (group shots)and Landscapes, and 105 mm is the perfect Portrait lens.

A 5X Zoom is great,so is a 10X and 12X Zoom Lens, but a good 3X is adequate for regular picture taking. One Digital Camera features a 12X zoom lens, this is equivalent to a 36 to 432mm Zoom lens in 35mm film photography.

Before there were Zoom lenses there were Prime lenses with a single fixed focal length, a good example is the 50mm prime lens shown above, also called a normal lens because objects viewed through this lens have the same perspective as those seen with the naked eye . This lens is used in 35mm film photography.

A Digital Zoom lens that zooms from 28 mm to 105 mm is really five lenses in one. you get:

• 28mm
• 35mm
• 50mm
• 85mm
• 105mm
  

A 28mm is a true wide angle lens, a 105 mm is a true Portrait lens, you also get all the focal lengths between them, (29-34mm) etc.
