Well, it may not be as useful as Ted's response, but here are some links 
to depth of field calculators.  Be aware that they do not all deal with 
f1 very well, but that is just because an f1 lens has so little DOF it 
is hardly worth computing! (be sure to select 'meters' for the default 
unit too - some are in feet)

I use a program on my Palm called PhotoDOF - it is very helpful in the 
field when I want critical focus on flowers or such, and nice out of 
focus backgrounds - though it is really designed for large format work, 
it suits my taste just fine.

Cheers!
