Depth of field info in view finder?

When my 5DIII is connected to an canon L lens, there is certainly a communication regarding F stop and focal length
When I am using a single focus point there is or could be data exchanged about distance.
Would it then be a stretch to have the computing power on board determine the depth of field and display this information in the viewfinder?

I use a Bosch Laser Meter for 3D Projekts and I can ensure You that this thing is very expensive ( ca 1000$ US or 700€ )
Also it would make not too muche sense to use it   on a moving Objekt , also the sureface have to be refelctiv or flat   for a good messurment.
The Idea that come to me in the Past would be to have a Laser "Fächer" ( don t know the word in English sorry) which means that U have a kind of LaserScanner , this Idea we   had   doing a lot of MoCap over here in my Studio.
This would make sence if u use it during recording of video     , means   a LaserScanner appears every  second Frame of say 100FpS - so 50FpS would be Video / Picture   and the other 50FpS would be Data   to provide for 3D MoCap
For u r IDea the cam   would have to scan and calculate the Distance and the Fieeld of Depth   , here the Prob could be that u have to send the laser straight from the middle of the lense to the Objekt.
Fact = Nice Idea for the Future but at the Moment I guess it is not realy possible

16-35 L USM lens and struggling with sharp focus and depth of field.

I just purchased the 16-35 L lens after reading all the reviews. I was previoulsy using the 24-70mm and was happy with the results. I am new to the Canon Mark 5D III and the new wide angle lens. I took pictures yesterday for over two hours and came back with no sharp images and no depth of field even when shooting at F/22. I zoomed in or moved close to my subjects expecting the images to be tack sharp but I am extremely disappointed. Not ONE of my pictures were tack sharp. What am I doing wrong? Are there correct settings for close-ups, landscapes and portraits with this lens? At F/22 I shoot 1/3 of the way into the picture expecting that everything in front and behind will be sharp. Not so. I am very frustrated as a newcomer to this camera. Please advise or guide me to a great source to learn.
thank you
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It'd really help to see an example, it's hard to guess without seeing it.
You shouldn't have to stop down to f/22 to get a large DoF at 16mm. In fact, part of what you might be seeing is softness from diffraction at that aperture. Try f/8, the DoF is actually quite wide at that aperture.
What shutter speeds are you at? Yes, you can get away with much slower speeds with UWA, but it can still soften images.
Lastly, I've never been able to get results out of an UWA like I can with longer lenses or a prime. I can get good results, and they clean up quite nicely in post, but viewing untouched photos at 100% it's never sharp like a good prime, or even a good tele really. So I don't know what you're expecting out of it. It usually doesn't matter since UWA are used for larger subject matter than the other lenses... but that has been my experience.

What's the best ND filter to buy to get the most shallow depth of field while taking pictures?

I have a Rebel SL1 by the way.

This depends on if you're trying to use flash at the same time.
Outdoors in full mid-day sun, the exposure based on a "Sunny 16" rule is f/16 and the shutter speed set to the inverse of the ISO speed. At ISO 100 you'd use 1/100th. But if you dial the aperture open 5 stops to f/2.8 then you can dial the shutter faster by 5 stops to 1/3200 and have an equivalent exposure.
f/2.8 is fairly shallow, but it is not the shallowest... f/2 and f/1.4 are even more shallow. Canon makes 50mm and 85mm f/1.2L (L series lenses) which can create especially shallow depth of field (particularly the 85mm). Canon used to have a 50mm f/1.0 lens but they have not made that in years.
Depending on your subject... there's a point where the depth of field is so shallow that it's not possible to to get your entire subject into acceptable focus. At f/1.4 and f/1.2 the depth of field can get REALLY thin (especially at close focusing distances.)
While most of my lenses can handle f/2.8 or better, I often find I prefer f/4 unless I can control subject placement well enough that f/2.8 (or lower) can still work.
Your SL1 caps out at 1/4000th sec shutter speed. So if you were to shoot in full mid-day sun (a bit of an extreme example) and you wanted to use, say, an f/2 aperture, you could not halve the shutter speed to 1/6400th because your shutter doesn't offer that setting. But you COULD do that with just a single stop ND filter (ND 0.3 -- when represented this way each "0.1" worth of density is equal to 1/3rd of a stop of light. So 0.3 is 3/3rds or 1 full stop.).
I have a 2 stop (ND 0.6), 3 stop (ND 0.9) and 10 stop (ND 3.0) filters in my bag.
If you use flash, this changes things... with flash (which I usually use during the day to fill the deep shadows and soften the light) you are capped at the flash sync speed. For your SL1 that's 1/200th sec (or slower) unless you have a speedlite that supports "high speed sync" mode.
In this situation, you might actually want 4 or 5 stops worth of ND if you are shooting in mid-day sun using fill-flash that doesn't support high-speed sync. You can change the shutter from 1/100th to 1/200th (1 stop) but you'd still have 4 more stops to make up to get from f/16 down to f/2.8... one more stop to get to f/2.
You can "stack" filters, but stacking increases the odds of artifacts from reflections... use high quality anti-reflective coated filters (this is a situation where it doesn't pay to buy budget filters.)
The major caution is that there is a point where the shallow depth of field is "too shallow" for the subject.

Does cinema 4d (cineware after effect) standard render no has depth of field and physical render have depth of field?

Dear sir
Why cineware have only one standard render engine ? why do no have more render engine?
as i saw in tutorial long course in internet for cinema 4d build in standard render is no has depth of field (f stop) but for physical render has depth of field.
so the problem with using cineware in after effect provide us only standard render engine. how can we composite with shallow depth of field video footage in After Effect if standard render no depth of field to Modeling or character that we composite with?

Now i can find solution on this depth of field cineware. I will try it
later. But now i have one more problem about render engine tool there are 4
in cinema 4d right? What different of them? See photo attached

Depth of field - is there a way to blur outward from central point?

I can do an easy depth of field by Gaussian blurring a layer copy, then erasing that layer's areas where I want the main object to be in focus.
I can do a progressive depth of field by incorporating the gradient tool into the blur, drawing a straight line from foreground to background (then the foreground is in focus while the rest of the photo goes out of focus gradually toward the background).
What I would like to do amounts to, in a way, a combination of the two - a progressive blur from the center of the picture out to the edges.
Is there a way - such as a circular gradient tool that I'm missing - to do this?
PSE3 on an iMac.
Thanks in advance.

My approach to doing this is to make a copy of the image layer and blur it appropriately. Then add a layer mask to this blurred layer. Lastly draw a radial gradient on the mask so that the in-focus part in the middle shows through and drops off towards the edges.
The only problem is that PSE doesn't support layer masks out of the box and you need to find an add on, but they tend to be free. Like these: http://www.cavesofice.org/~grant/Challenge/Tools/index.html

How do you stop the camera depth of field affecting one text layer?

Just as the heading says it really
, i'm doing a fly through sort of thing and as the camera slows down to give the viewer time to read some text the depth of field of focus runs out and the text begfins to get a little blurry, is there a way to stop the text from being affected by camera DOF? Do i have to make the text a non-3D layer?
thank you very mnuch in advance
paul

Hi, Thanks for your response,
I could adjust the focal length on the camera to match the text but that then makes some other elements in my project change their focus, or 'blurryness'. I was just hopeing to keep the camera as it was and just make the text layer be not affected by the camera's focal length. Turn off DOP for the text type of thing. Is there such a setting? Thank you so much for your time

How can I pass field value betwen view in ICWC?

Hi experts,
I am new to this BSP programming. I have some requirements to modify standard ICWC in CRM 5.0
Hope can get some advices and helps here.
I have added a new field called <status> to context note SEARCHCUSTOMER in BupaSearchB2B view and also the same field name to context note CUSTOMER in BupaCreate view.
I have added the field into both the HTM views and able to execute thru WebClient. However, I have one problem in passing the <status> value from BupaSearchB2B view to the BupaCreate view when I click on the 'create' button.
I do search and saw this thread How can I pass field value beetwen view in IC Web Client? , but i cant figure out how it works.
Do I need to create the field <status> to context note CUSTOMER in BupaSearchB2B? Currently the context note does not have any attributes.
Really appreciate for any help.

Adding fields in costing view of material master

Hi gurus,
I need to add 4 fields in costing view of material master. I have followed the steps in SPRO, for configuring customized screen in material master.
1) Created a function group YMMCO and copied the screen 2904 from program SAPLMGD1.
2) Added 4 fields in my customized screen.
3) Created copy of 01 ( Screen reference ) to z1 in OMT3B.
Since 2904 is not there in the sequence . I changed one 0001 sequence at the end to 2904 . I also assigned my program
SAPLYMMCO to it. I can see the changed fields in data screen and subscreen.
4) Then I assigned the SSq to z1 in transaction OMT3E.
But unfortunately, when I go to MM01 to create a material , I am not able to view the fields I added in costing view.
I have checked the screen for the previous field, it shows 2904 only.
Two days back, I did the same thing in basic data view 1 , it was working properly. As per client's suggestion I put it in
costing view, it is not working . Please give me suitable suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
D. Mallick

Hi,
I also need to add custom fields to Basic data view. After copying & changing the screen sequence in Config, I could able to see the custom fields in Basic Data view.
I have appended structure with custom fields to MARA table.
But the values I enter in the screen is not getting updated to the table MARA.
Can you please let me know the code, I should have have in PAI (Process After Input) module in the Sub Screen to update the values?
Thanks,

Missing fields in Purchasing View

Dear all,
We have got an issue like this.For our client we are using Workflow to
create a material.For this we made a process like this .
User1-Basic Data1&2
User2-Sales Views
User3 or User4-Purchasing Views.Both are having same roles in workflow.
User5- MRP1,2,3&4 Views
User6- Finance&Costing Views
When we create a material,we are getting an issue in Purchasing View.
In Purchasing View User 3 able to see all fields in Purchasing view.
If User 4 tried to fill the data for this Purchasing View some fields
are hidden,which we are not able to see.The missing fields are as
follows.
Purchasing Group,Plant-sp.matl status,Tax ind. f.
material,Qual.f.FreeGoodsDis,Autom.PO,but both user3 and user4 share
same roles in workflow.
After that we had given SAP_ALL to User4 and tried to create a material
using standard MM01,then also we are not able to see all fields in
Purchasing View.But User 3 is able to see those fields through MM01 too.I have attached a document,please go through it.
What would be the reason for this?Please suggest us possible
solution,as soon as possible.
Regards
Ganesh.

Hi,
Option:1=>For user 3 and user 4 , problems in cretaion of material difference, Consult your Basis Consultant.
Option:2=>For hidden field,follow below steps( in user 3 , check and correct for user 4)
1. Just click the tab ,(Which is hidden for user 4, in user 3 )and get the field name
2.Go to T.Code: OMSR and enter that field name and get Selection Group in user
3.In USER 4,Go to T.code: OMS9 and select your material type and go to "overviews" .In the next screen, you can see your field selection Group, click that and you can make that field required entry for User4 and save.
Now try to create material in USER 4.
Hope helpful to you and then reward.

SRM 7.0 New custom fields added to view do not appear in the component conf

Hi
I added two custom fields to the view V_QTE_DOFC_I_DESC of the WD componenet /SAPSRM/WDC_DODC_QTE_I_DS. This view gets called when bidder is trying to create a bid and clicks on add Substitute Item in the Item tab. This view is simply a popup window where we can enter ther substitute item.
I added two custom fields to the context of the above view and placed on the layout of the view as input fields. Then I tried to modify the component configuration /SAPSRM/WDCC_DODC_QTE_I_DS_SUB. When I look in t he web dynrpo built-in for the view V_QTE_DOFC_I_DESC, I don't see the custom fields that I just added. As a result, these custom fields are not displayed when I try to substitute an item. Could anyone tell me how to brining in these two custom fields into the component configuration.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi Prasuna,
Sorry ..You are right..I was looking at some other WDC related to contract data..It you map the CUFs to /SAPSRM/S_CLL_CTR_ITEM which has the include structure INCL_EEW_PD_ITEM_CSF_CTR then it should work fine.
If you do this, are you able to view the new fields on the screen?
you mentioned that you are not able to save the data to the table.
Include your fields in INCL_EEW_PD_ITEM_CSF as well because if you add CUF to any of those doc types, you also have to add those CUF to the global structure for CUF documents.
Also Check if you fields are there in structures BBPS_CTR_CUF_ITEM,BBPS_CTR_UI_ITEM and BBPS_CTR_ITEM.
Check whether you have implemented the BADI's like BBP_DOC_CHECK_BADI ,BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI and BBP_DOC_SAVE_BADI . check out the structures (whether they having the CUFS) used in those if you have implemented any of them .

HOW to include a reference currency fields in a view ?

Hello Experts,
<b>I am having Currency fields error in generic extraction</b>
I have table where I am trying to extract data to BW via generic extraction. When I tried
to extract with the TABLE its giving me an error
<b>Invalid extract structure template RPSCO of DataSource ZBW_REP3_TEST

Now I created a view with all the fields same as my table.
But its still giving me the same error and taking all the fields as a primary keys. I have over 12 currency fields in the table. I am confused how to fix this issue and add a currency field to my view?
hOW to include a reference currency fields in a view ?
All inputs are much appreciated.
