Different subject distances and zoom settings will affect depth of field and so these values are intended as a guide only. Subject distance 1. 95 1. 80 1. 65 1. 40 Max. subject distance 2. 05 2. 25 2. 60 3. 85 Important: It is recommended that the camera is operated in the range of f/4 to f/8 to optimise the depth of field and maintain image sharpness. Adjust studio lighting to achieve an f-number within this range page 16 of 28 12.
