All objects in the scene on the Z axis are rendered in sharp focus.

• A. Deep Depth of Field
• B. Shallow Depth of Field
• C. White Balance
• D. Aperture

Answer: (A)

All objects at different distances along the Z axis being sharp means you have a deep depth of field. This occurs when a large range of distances—from foreground to background—is rendered in focus, so the scene stays clear from near to far. Deep depth of field is typically achieved by using a small aperture (high f-number), which broadens the sharpness range. In contrast, a shallow depth of field narrows the plane of sharp focus, making elements outside that plane appear blurry. White balance deals with color temperature and doesn’t affect sharpness. Aperture controls depth of field: a smaller aperture increases the depth of field, while a larger aperture reduces it.
