For info, (Applies to 300D, 350D, 10D, 20D, 30D)
Focal length of 200mm
Aperture : F2.8
Subject distance : 30 meters
Gives a total depth of field of : 2.4 meters (in total sharpness)
This is enough for cars - the out of focus falls off gradually. |
Weird... with my 70-300 when I shoot between 70 and 100 mm and min F, ence 4.0 to 4.5 I usually end up with the rear of the car already blurry, so I really don't see how 2.8 could be good for such pics..
