MPP USERS CLUB - DEPTH OF FIELD TABLES

DEPTH OF FIELD TABLES FOR LARGE FORMAT CAMERAS

Technical Information Section

Scroll To Select Table

TABLES BELOW are from a MicroTechnical Mk VII handbook and cover 90mm, 125mm, 150mm and 185mm lenses.

NOTE CAREFULLY how these tables work. They are as published by MPP Ltd. Distances are from the point of focus NOT the film plane with the exception of the INFINITY rows where the figures are from the film plane. See panel above each table.

Distance = Focus setting - N = Nearest point in focus from focus distance - F = Furthest point in focus from focus distance

Infinity distances are measured from the Film Plane
