Surprising (to me) depth of field results
Jul 16, 2013 19:59:03 #
I was experimenting with my Zeiss Ikonta, a medium format 6X9 cm image sensor (Kodak Ektar 100 film) and was pleasently surprised with the depth of field results at f/16, 1/100, focus point at "inf". The hand rail on the right was only 5 ft or so away. The negative scanning is not the highest of resolutions.

You are getting a great benefit from a non-detailed foreground ! - But, it does appear good !

I used to have three super Ikonta's many years ago and used them for weddings. They were super cameras , the ones i had were 6x6 centimeter negs and took 11 photos on a roll. This gave you extra space between the frames so you could write on the borders wit indian ink to number them. I wish I still had them, I used to carry one in each pocket and they nevr gave trouble.

I step left to take two photo's each shot I can. That, reversed makes a 3 D SBS photo. Your comment on resolution adds to my "wonder" When I look at 2 photos simultaneously does my brain receive twice the resolution? Sharp pictures make great 3 D pictures. No glasses needed.
