Young boy's portrait varies across five aperture settings from f/16 to f/1.2

A cinematic comparison board showing the same boy in five stacked panels with different depths of field, from sharp to creamy bokeh.

Prompt

Create a vertical cinematic comparison board showing the same young boy in five stacked horizontal panels, similar to a professional cinematography reference sheet. Each panel shows the same subject, same location, same lighting, same wardrobe, but different aperture depth of field.

Panel 1: f/16, deep focus, background clearly visible, subject and environment both sharp.
Panel 2: f/11, slight background softness, subject sharp, realistic depth.
Panel 3: f/5.6, moderate depth of field, subject sharp, background softly blurred.
Panel 4: f/4.0, strong cinematic background blur, subject separated from environment.
Panel 5: f/1.2, extremely shallow depth of field, only eyes and face sharp, creamy bokeh background.

Use a clean director-style layout inspired by professional cinematography shot reference boards. Add bold aperture labels on the left or right side of each panel: f/16, f/11, f/5.6, f/4.0, f/1.2. Cinematic realistic look, soft natural light, premium camera test aesthetic, consistent subject, consistent framing, no extra text except aperture labels.

Make the aspect ratio 3:4
