Group f/64
A group of photographers created in 1932. The original membership was:
- Ansel Adams
- Edward Weston
- Imogen Cunningham
- John Paul Edwards[?]
- Sonya Noskowiak[?]
- Henry Swift[?]
- Willard Van Dyke[?]
The name, f/64, depicts the smallest aperture available on the large format camera[?]. With such a small aperture, depth of field is maximal, which - at least in the eyes of the group members - gave the best possible quality of the resulting photograph.
