Two things:

1) Memorize the critical two or three hyperfocus settings. They are
roughly: f/16 focused at 10 ft gives you 5 ft -> inf.
         f/11 focused at 12 ft gives you 6 ft -> inf.
         f/8  focused at 16 ft gives you 8 ft -> inf.

2) Use the camera's DOF scale, but 2 stops lower than indicated. In
other words, use the f/8 markings when shooting at f/16, the f/5.6 mark
when shooting at f/11, etc.
