the lens set to its current f-stop number.

What is the depth of field?

When you focus on a specific subject, there is a range
in which objects closer and further away are all in focus.
This focused range is called the depth of field.

The wider the wide-angle lens, the higher the aperture
value, the greater the depth of field.
For example, the aperture stop, f 11 is higher than f 2.8.
