Depth refers to the range of a camera lens. The depth of field specifically distinguishes the distance furthest away from a lens in which the objects being photographed will remain in focus approaching infinity.

- The depth in a scene from the foreground to the background that will be in sharp focus in a photograph. Depth of field varies with aperture, lens focal length and camera-to-subject distance. Depth of field is primarily affected by the aperture, subject distance (closer subject would produce a shallower depth of field), and focal length (28mm lens...

The zone of in-focus elements, from front to back. Another way to put this is the range of distance that is acceptably sharp within a photograph. Depth-of field varies inversely with the aperture opening. In other words, a wide-open lens with an aperture of f/1.8 has little depth of field; if stopped down to f/16, almost everything from front to ba...

The area in front of and behind an object in perfect focus, that appears sharp on the screen. The depth of field increases with the decrease of the focal length, i.e., the shorter the focal length the longer the depth of field.

photography / live action: depth of field is two numbers which predict how much of a scene will be in focus, given as distance from the camera. The depth of field is affected by how much the lens is 'stopped down' - the closer a lens comes to being like a pin hole, the greater the depth of field (the more will be sharp). This effect can be replicat...

While a lens focuses on a single plane of depth, there is usually an additional area in focus behind and in front of that plane. This is depth of field. Depth of field increases as the iris is closed. There is more depth of field the wider the lens and less the longer the lens. There is a deeper area in focus the further away a lens is focused than...

(DOF). The range of items in focus in an image. This is controlled by the focal length and aperture opening of a lens. A large or wide aperture gives a shallow depth of field (not much range in focus) and a smaller or narrow aperture give a large depth of field (more range in focus).
