FAQ
What's hyperfocal distance? +
Focus there and everything from half that distance to infinity is acceptably sharp. The trick landscape photographers use to maximize foreground-to-background sharpness.
Why CoC matters +
Circle of Confusion = how sharp something needs to be to look sharp at normal viewing. Smaller sensors need smaller CoC for the same perceived sharpness.
