Hello Mark Thank you for this very informative video. Do you have any video for canon 50mm prime lens, or can you tell good aperture values for everything focus special when you photographing with a far away background and with few feet away subjects. Thank you
Hello Mark, thanks for video. The link that you mention in video for hyperfocal distance calculation is not working. You probably mean this link www.outsight.com/hyperfocal.html
Dear Mark this is pawandeep singh, this video is very useful for me, now please make video on zoom lense. Setting focus for infinity appetture value etc for hyper focal distance.
hi Mark, I love your videos and I follow you in this channel. i have 2 questions 1- Does this lens have the dof guide Nikon AF NIKKOR 20mm f/2.8D Lens? 2- I use the Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8 but i notice that manually it would focus after 1 m. my frustration is that it is hard to calculate between 1m and infinite. What do you recommend for this lens for this lens until i get the prime this prime lnes by nikon. Thanks for your help
Thank you very much for your excellent advice, a very useful and informative video. The difficulty I find with hyperfocal focusing is that there is not always something to focus at the required distance within your composition. Any suggestions in that case? For example, if I have only one subject in the frame that is far enough away and I would like everything to be in focus from there, is it better to approach with a lens like a 24mm or move away and use a 75mm? Thanks, and keep up the good work. Well done!
I'm interested in buying a DSLR. It's pretty expensive so I want to know more about this type of cameras before I buy it. Can anyone tell me what's the difference beetwen a STM and other types of objectives?
Outsight lost me at 'Select Format: 35mm__ 6x6cm__ 4x5in__ Digital LMF __' I get the 35mm for film but the '6x6cm__ 4x5in__ Digital LMF __' have me lost. I have no clue what those mean or how to find out. none of those numbers show up in anything about a nikon d3100. I have a 35mm lens f/1.8.
Mark, really enjoy your teaching, thanks so much. Something your followers might be interested in is an app called TrueDoF, they actually have a free version and it does the math for you as to what's in focus with various lens and aperture settings.
just it would be more helpful if you mention the sensor size when suggesting the lenses wide coverage angles to know about the cropping factor which as you said impacts the given numbers... I mean when you suggest a 21 mm lens do you mean a 21 mm equivalent to the full frame sensor size?
One thing I don't quite understand is how the DoF scale embedded on some lenses can apply to different sensors - do I assume correctly that it's calibrated for FX sensors only?
After watching Doc Martin I noticed often they film scenes with the actors close and in focus with the scenic surroundings in focus. How is this done? Imagine this video with you in focus and the buildings behind you in focus.
Hey Mark, I love your work on the tutorials. I've learned a lot. But... within the tutorials, we don't know what kind of camera you use. Full frame or crop sensor. Thanks
You have to estimate distances. If you are not good at that then fall back to auto focus or manual focus and look carefully at the scene to determine where you are actually in focus...adjust accordingly. Hyper-focal dist focusing is not an end-all it is merely a handy tool useful mostly for street or anything not needing a ficus on infinity.
Mark, Great explanation. I remember reviewing charts and such in school to get those settings. Thanks for sharing. Hope you are enjoying your great world tour.
peace of cake use the website. And set it to w.e fstop u set ur lense to. 3.5 or when you zoom in all the way your at 5.6 just use the website and dial in the aperture
You’ll just have to calculate the distance you need, then measure or approximate it when you focus. I’m assuming your lens, like many these days, has no distance scale. It would be nice if manufacturers would build something like this into their cameras. It already knows your focal length, f stop, and sensor size... so it should be simple enough to put a menu option in for “set hyperfocal distance”. Press the button and viola, it focuses to the proper distance for your current settings.

Hi everyone! The hyperfocal distance calculator is located here: www.outsight.com/hyperfocal.html
Woow dude, I was really confused about how to get the whole scene in focus and this was super easy to understand, thanks a lot!
the site name is "outsight" not "outsite"
outsight.com/hyperfocal.html
Man, I love this guys videos.. Awesome..
Hello Mark
Thank you for this very informative video.

Thank you
Didn't expect that this would be so easy. Thanks Mr Mark.
Aren't Mark's tutorials the best? Love 'em!
I can't believe you were standing behind my apartment. I could have gotten the info in person! Now I'm n Dublin, Ireland.
Hello Mark, thanks for video. The link that you mention in video for hyperfocal distance calculation is not working. You probably mean this link www.outsight.com/hyperfocal.html
I got only kit lens 18 - 55 mm ef-s , it has no distance scale/dof scale, it means i cannot do the hyperfocal distance,?? Help please..
Mr.Wallace maybe you forgot to say that a "TRIPOD" would come in handy? Also isn't the 1/3 rule a little easier? Best Regards!!

Has anyone had luck setting a high yet sharp focal length with a 50mm canon?
Thanks, as my high school maths teacher used to say, the penny has finally dropped through the reinforced concrete. Can't wait to go out shooting now.
I tried that link on screen and it took me to a 404 error... is this the site you are talking bout? www.outsight.com/hyperfocal.html
www.outsight.com/hyperfocal.html seems to be the correct address
Cheers Dude! I was very focused on you video 🐴
Thanks, Mark Wallace and Adorama TV for producing this educational video on focusing.
There are nice apps for Android with DOF calculator and other helpful features.
What is the camera strap that you have with your Leica.
outsite.com/hyperfocal.html doesn't exist
Thanks master...!!!
i have 40mm micro 2.8G Nikon Nikkor DX lens on my d3200... can't calculate because ur site on have 35mm
use app on playstore or appstore
Mark you are the best! thank you!
Thankyou Thnakyou very much…

Perfect explanation, thank you!
Outsight lost me at
'Select Format: 35mm__ 6x6cm__ 4x5in__ Digital LMF __'
I get the 35mm for film but the '6x6cm__ 4x5in__ Digital LMF __' have me lost.
I have no clue what those mean or how to find out. none of those numbers show up in anything about a nikon d3100.
I have a 35mm lens f/1.8.
How about shutter speed?
Mark, really enjoy your teaching, thanks so much. Something your followers might be interested in is an app called TrueDoF, they actually have a free version and it does the math for you as to what's in focus with various lens and aperture settings.
Mark I noticed the distance from the website & the distance on your camera/Len's settings were different, do you suggest using the lens settings?
Thanks Mark, it is a great video explaining all about hyperfocal distance.
Hi can any one out here help me with hyperfocal distance for my canon 5d mrkii with Tamron 15-30mm f2.8. Many thanks in advance.
just it would be more helpful if you mention the sensor size when suggesting the lenses wide coverage angles to know about the cropping factor which as you said impacts the given numbers... I mean when you suggest a 21 mm lens do you mean a 21 mm equivalent to the full frame sensor size?
That Leica is a full frame sensor - it's crop factor is 1.0
One thing I don't quite understand is how the DoF scale embedded on some lenses can apply to different sensors - do I assume correctly that it's calibrated for FX sensors only?
After watching Doc Martin I noticed often they film scenes with the actors close and in focus with the scenic surroundings in focus. How is this done? Imagine this video with you in focus and the buildings behind you in focus.
Does anybody know if this would work while shooting video with my camera? I would love to shoot video without using the autofocus in the camera.
What if you don't have a distance scale and you shoot a video at night, and you want to get all in focus ??? At night you can't use f.8 while filming
Hey Mark,
I love your work on the tutorials. I've learned a lot. But... within the tutorials, we don't know what kind of camera you use. Full frame or crop sensor.
Thanks
How do I get the foreground and the backround in focus on a primelens?
OK, what happens if you don't have a distance scale, how then do you calculate H F D????
You have to estimate distances. If you are not good at that then fall back to auto focus or manual focus and look carefully at the scene to determine where you are actually in focus...adjust accordingly. Hyper-focal dist focusing is not an end-all it is merely a handy tool useful mostly for street or anything not needing a ficus on infinity.
Tape measure
Hi Mark. What metering mode you set for landscapes
outsite website not working
anyone know if I can do this on my Fuji x100t? it's a fixed lens system. .?
Using this on my 16-35 today in Bangkok
Mark,
Great explanation. I remember reviewing charts and such in school to get those settings. Thanks for sharing. Hope you are enjoying your great world tour.
Very interesting video! Awesome.
MArk is the best ! He s my first online instructor for photography.
Love your Videos Mark!! I'v learned sooo much from you!
Thank you so much
can't you use focus peaking to determine if everything is in focus?
thank you so much need to watch it again but this is what i want
outsite.com/hyperfocal.html doesn't exist anymore
The picture in 6:32 is in my city! Haha, nice one! And what an amazing video, I learned so much :) thank you!
I have the sigma 8-16 mm on my 750D. F8-11 still a good F range to start with for full focus on big landscape shots?... New to photography
Scott Mathieson yes. i find f8, f9 and f11 are the most useful. but you try and see for yourself, it's all the joy.
mark wallace, you are an excellent teacher. best wishes!
nice video mark. thank you. I always learn so much from your videos. look forward to the next one.
Really well explained Mark. Love your videos.
Thank you Mark, I think your tutorials are one of the best to comprehend the basics. cheers!
Mark, you're the best. Such a great teacher.
Really enjoyed this video. Great explanation of hyperfocal distance.
outsite.com/hyperfocal.html returns a 404 error.
Great video, thanks Mark!!
Mark tell us how to set distance in a kit lens.
peace of cake use the website. And set it to w.e fstop u set ur lense to. 3.5 or when you zoom in all the way your at 5.6 just use the website and dial in the aperture

outsite.com is dead, getting a 404.
completely confusing!
Incredibly helpful.
Turn up the damn volume
so where do you focus?
thanks for the useful stuff
