Sensor size is what determines the circle of confusion, and therefore how much
depth of field Pentax K-01 gives you at any given aperture.
You can
calculate
the exact depth of field for the Pentax K-01
at any focal length, aperture and subject distance, including the hyperfocal distance
for landscapes and the very shallow focus zone you get with long telephoto lenses.
