Getting to know your camera

PROJECT : GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAMERA


Exercise1  Focal length and angle of view

This exercise involved taking three photographs at different focal lengths.

P1 : 55mm @ f5.6

P2 : 18mm @ f4.5

P3 : 70mm @ f4.5

What was interesting here was how the comfortable viewing distance varied from about 66mm ( P1 ); 26mm ( P2 ) and 77mm+ ( P3 - arm not long enough!) ; and sacrifice of detail using the wide  angled lens.
