The out of focus is just the fluff>> I've heard this argument before and never accepted it. Unless you blank out the defocused areas of your pictures when you print them, they are just as much a part of the image as the focused areas. A true professional is concerned with (and controls) the entire image, often picking a lens and aperture setting to control the overall effect, including using DOF control to "focus" attention on the subject. Getting the subject composed and in focus is Photo101 and just the first part of the equation. ..Randy
