Ansel Adams may have been a founding member of f.64, but as I found out when I started making landscape images a few years ago, stopping down is far from your best option with today's lenses. See: http://www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/50-comparison/f-stops.htm In fact, if you shoot with a DSLR (I think you use a D70), depending on the lens and your sensor, f8 to f11 is probably your best bet. Check out the test results. Paul G.
