The notion of depth of field refers to the way in which spatial depth is represented through depth of focus in cinematic or photographic images. Technically speaking, depth of field is determined by many factors, namely the distance between the lens and the subject, the focal length of the lens, the camera format, the aperture value, etc. Although the technical aspects of depth of field have been subject to pointed empirical exploration, this article will address the debates that focus on the implications of the notion of depth of field vis-a-vis the philosophy and aesthetics of the cinematic and photographic image. The significance of depth of field with respect to the cinematic representation of space has stirred considerable controversy in extant literature. This paper will attempt to connect pertinent theoretical debates in film theory with photography through an examination of the implications of each on the indexical character of the photographic medium

Alan derinliği sinematik veya fotografik imgede mekânsal derinliğin odaksal derinlikle temsil edilmesidir. Teknik olarak
bakıldığında alan derinliğinin objektif ve fotoğrafın nesnesi arasındaki mesafe, objektifin odak uzunluğu, kamera formatı,
diyafram değeri gibi bir takım unsurlara bağlı olduğunu biliyoruz. Her ne kadar literatürde bu teknik unsurlar açısından
alan derinliği ayrı bir tartışma konusu ise de bu çalışmada alan derinliği kavramının sinematik/fotografik imgenin felsefi
ve estetik boyutu bağlamında incelendiği kuramlar tartışılacaktır. Literatürde alan derinliğinin mekânın sinematik temsil
biçimleri açısından önemi üzerine çok farklı kuramsal tartışmalar mevcuttur. Bu makalede film kuramı bağlamındaki ilgili
tartışmalardan bazıları fotografik imge bağlamında yorumlanacak ve fotografik medyumun belirtisellik özelliği açısından
incelenecektir.
