Lesson #1- Camera Set-up & Function


Wednesday 7th October- John Harrison

Today we looked first at different lens'

50Ml Lens

A 50ml lens is good for most purposes and John suggested over time this should be something we have in our kit, a fixed focal length lens teaches the photographer to use their legs to zoom in rather than moving the lens and becoming lazy.

A 50ml lens gives the same perspective as the human eye so is useful for portraits and most things.

Lens' on a FFDSLR (Full frame DSLR)

- A 28ml lens on a FFDSLR is classed as Wide
- A 50ml lens on a FFDSLR is classed as Standard
- A 85ml lens on a FFDSLR is classed as Telephoto

The Ratio from FFDSLR to DSLR is x 1.6
