H=f²/(N·c)+f · landscape zone focus

Quick Answer

Hyperfocal Distance Calculator: H=f²/(N·c)+f · landscape zone focus. Hyperfocal Distance Calculator uses standard everyday life formulas to compute accurate results instantly.

How it works

  1. 1H=f²/(N·c)+f with circle of confusion c (FF 0.03 mm / APS-C 0.02)
  2. 2Focused at H: sharp from H/2 to infinity
  3. 3Smaller aperture (larger f-number) pulls H closer
  4. 4Street preset 2 m; landscapes include the near subject

Sharp zone:2.57 m to ∞
Near limit = H/2:2.57 m
CoC conventions differ slightly by maker (Zeiss/Fuji often 0.03 for FF) — verify on-screen at final size. Hyperfocal suits landscape, street and documentary set-and-shoot; not for shallow-DOF portraits. Remember per focal length on zooms; legacy DOF scales embody the same idea. Pixel-peepers can tighten c one notch.
