Apogee Photo have published a new article all about the depth of field preview function, which means that only SLR camera owners need apply. Is that small button that makes the viewfinder go dark actually worth using after all?

“Landscape photographers are very opinionated when discussing the camera’s depth-of-field preview button.  Professionals applaud its virtues.  However, many amateurs say it’s a waste of time.  As opinions go, there is no middle ground.  People either love the depth-of-field preview, or they hate it.  This article will explain how the depth of field preview operates, its problems, and a few tips for making it work well for you.”
