I think that you can either focus on the subject, which is 50 feet away, and get a depth of just over five feet in sharp focus OR focus at 921 feet away (using the same aperture and focal length) and capture everything from about 460 feet to infinity at reasonable sharpness. Not both.

Thank you, Nicole for posting these. I have been gulping down as many of these types of posts as possible. I really appreciate the time it took and the thoughfulness you had to post these wonderful links.

Gotta love learning!
