Depth-of-Field Indicator
Depth of field can be read directly from the distance scale in either feet or
meters with the aid of the depthof-field indicator coupled to the lens aperture
control. As you change aperture settings, two red pointers move over the distance
scale automatically to indicate the near and far limits of sharpness at each aperture
setting. For example, with the 35mm lens focused at 10 feet (3m) and set at f/16, the
pointers show that the depth of field extends from about 5 feet (1.5m) to infinity (°).
