Remember your depth of field is 1 in front to 2 to the back.in other words if your for ground is in focus 3 inches from your focal point, your background will be 6 inches from your focal point.

You can see the focus point , but everything else around is fuzzy , what I'm doing wrong ?


I don't understand why you didn't post the entire picture and then click on "store original" then shutter speed and all would show. I will try to look this up. f 3.5 is a wide open aperture and DOF (depth of field) is very shallow. David Your first post shows F 3.5 the second one f 22?

I think that on the second post, many things were in-focus, and many things were out of focus. That made it difficult for me to appreciate the over-all image. A very narrow depth of field for an image with DEPTH.. Drops could have been in focus, petals edges could have been in focus, as well as the stapies of the flowers. So there was a number of levels of in. AND out of focus. Use the Big numbers. F 22, F 16, or better, for such shots. Though I admit, that makes it tougher for Hand-held. RJM SEE!! I had the same problem

Some in some out, of focus

Increase your F-stop. to clear the fuzziness of the petals.

Also have a look at image stacking on the net. I have had reasonable success by tripod mounting the camera and then taking several shots focused on different points and then stack them to effectively increase your dof
