Both of these photos were taken at f\/1.8. F\/1.8 for a landscape photo? Ya, f\/1.8 for a landscape photo because the subject is at infinity and infinity has no depth of field. Now that fact won&#8217;t sit well with most but that&#8217;s the way it is. You don&#8217;t need to crank the aperture down to f\/16 or more to have a sharp landscape photo. Just look above. And you don&#8217;t have to own the 20f1.8 or take my word to this fact. Just go shoot a subject at infinity and look for yourself. mtc<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Grand Canyon is simply, breath taking!
