    The document contains two tables that list the hyperfocal distances in feet and meters for different focal lengths and apertures on Nikon and Fujifilm DX format cameras. The hyperfocal distance is the closest distance at which you can focus a lens to get acceptable sharpness from that distance to infinity. The tables provide this information to help photographers determine the optimal focus distance for maximum depth of field when shooting landscapes or other scenes where depth of field is important.

    Cut along the outside border and fold it in half for lamination. Make copies for your friends.
    Example of use:
    If you were using a 24mm lens and select f/11 as your aperture, the Hyperfocal Distance would
    be 2.5 meters or 8.4 feet. If you focus at that hyperfocal distance, the depth of field in your image
    would be from half of that distance (1.25 meters or 4.2 feet) to infinity.
    Since modern lenses don't have DOF engraved marks in their barrels anymore, you need to
    estimate where in your scene is that hyperfocal distance read from the table to focus on.
    As long as it is approximate you'll be fine.
