Hi Erik and all,

I'd think just the opposite would be correct. A higher f-stop (f 22, 18
etc.) would create a better depth of field and the more open your iris is on
your camera (lower f stop, 1.8, 2.0 etc.) the less focused your items would
be. I think you just stated it backwards. Best!

The third thing is auto-blending. For those of you who have SLR's you will
notice that shooting at a higher F-stop like F1.8 or F2.8 is a lot sharper
than shooting at a lower F-stop like F22. The problem is, you might have to
drop your F-stop to make sure the whole meteorite is in focus.
