>>166905 Well, yeah, I know, I'm just curious. Like, I can explain why I like working with normals, specifically the wider end of normal, around the "true normal" of 43mm equivalent. It's easy to previsualize, the frame is kept neat while not slicing up the scene at all, there aren't compression or expansion effects to distract from the composition or content, which also forces me to be in top form on those. If I want the subject to look important, I have to make it important; I can't rely on the isolated sense telephotos give or the sense of scale wides give. The subject and my relation (physical and otherwise) is presented on its own terms.
I was just looking for stuff like that from people, why they like using wides, and so on. A conversation on it. I wouldn't mind hearing from tele people either here on why they like longer lenses when it's not necessitated by distance.
Sort of a gear thread, but a gear thread about pictures, in talking about an aspect of gear that actually affects the pictures, that we actually deal with when shooting, not brandwar mess.
>>166923 I don't either. Just looks like he shooped it.
