- large apertures for dimly lit rooms/low-light outdoor scenes
- macro lenses = small subjects
- telephoto lenses = distant subjects
- ideal for emphasizing or bringing a subject closer
- for flatness
- wide-angle lenses = when broad field of view is the target
- give subject's BG equal importance
- for exaggerated for an exaggerated sense of depth
- zoom lense allows you to get the perspective you want w/o having to change lenses
- the more the lens is opened, the narrower the depth of field. the more it is closed, the greater the depth of field.
- large aperture = blurred bg and fg
- depth of field is greater with wide angles, smaller with telephotos
- the larger the lens opening, the brighter the lens
