I like the idea of using "depth of focus". It more clearly describes what 
you're trying to convey - the control of the area that is in focus.

Seems like a good idea to me for you to coin this use of "depth of focus" 
as your own teaching tool. I think I'll use it too.
I'm sure others will disagree.
