Introduction to Lens

  • Lens is the eyes of the camera because what you will see from a camera is depend on what is the lens see. :)
  • Lens is the very important of your camera. It is a transparent which is made from glass or plastic, it used to a tool for creating the image on film or image sensor. Lens can be made of a single lens or set of lens so we can apply them in many styles.
    All the glass that makes for lens are very detailed a good lens will can speed up for light reflex and give a good quality of contrast, color and distortion. Besides, lens is coated by a special liquid that can reduce the reflection of external light so can produce the satisfied image.
Many of the lenses used for photography are created on specifications that are almost identical to the prescription lenses that are used in glasses. These specifications are normally instilled in lenses that are totally separate from the camera that they will be attached to but the specifications will have to take into account the lenses that are on the camera too.

There are a variety of lenses that an amateur photographer can use to learn the basics of photography, and there are various styles to camera lenses that would typically be chosen by a professional photographer to use during the course of a business day. The professional photographer will have several cameras in his arsenal that are pre-set for the photographic poses that he will use in his photographs while he is at work.

There are various environments that will affect the quality of the photographs taken, and the lenses chosen for inside a photo studio will be dramatically different from those chosen for a photo shoot in bright sunshine, or in the dark recesses of a photo opportunity that might present itself at the entrance to a nightclub or other nightspot frequented by celebrities.

Most often, a professional photographer will consider zoom lenses used for photography at a football game but the photographer will have to make a choice on whether they want to use a camera with a wide-zoom lens to capture all of the action on the field, or if the photographer needs to concentrate on the up close and personal shots that tourist are very fond of that show the facial features of the person in a whole new light.

Some scientists consider the telephoto lenses used for photography of images that are millions of miles away. The lens mounted on a telescope might weigh more than 3,000 pounds but that lens is also capable of capturing images that might come from the surface of the moon or the newly downgraded planet called Pluto. The scientific uses for zoom lenses may also help space explorers to view damage that has occurred outside one of the space vehicles while in outer space.

Many of the cameras that are used for recreational photographs will typically have zoom lenses installed, but offer no opportunity to adjust the setting on the lenses to gain a better view of the intended subject. Many of these camera lenses will feature an automatic focus and offer the amateur photographer a photographic tool that is easy to maintain and affordable at the same time.

Some professional photographers will chose a different lens for the photographs that will be developed for portraits. Other lenses in his arsenal might allow the professional photographer to apply a color enhancement to the skin of a subject or to add brightness and clarity to landscape backgrounds that are most commonly found in a photographer's studio. Every camera lens will allow the professional photographer to approach his work with a different perspective.
