Default Re: Tech question about DOF - macro environment

The problem is, the focal length of a lens is fixed at the given value only at infinity and lengthens as it gets focussed closer, creating a smaller aperture of course. So in your formula f is the focal length at infinity and N the aperture at infinity?
