Question 1 of 1
1. Question
1 pointsHow does the DOF change if we change the focal length but keep FOV and F#?
Say, how can a change of focal length help us to increase the view?CorrectThe FOV and the Sensor are the same, so the magnification is the same. If the F# is the same, then also the numerical aperture and thus the DOF. See https://www.optowiki.info/blog/can-i-increase-the-dof-by-changing-the-focal-length/?noredirect=en

Hint
The user obviously wants to look with the same camera at the same FOV.
