"What is a Prime Lens? And Why You Should Use It"




  • a prime lens is basically a lens with a fixed focal length
  • it cannot zoom
  • since its focal length is fixed, it uses a wider aperture
  • a wider aperture allows more light to flow in
  • allows a great range of focal distance
  • you are able to work at faster shutter speeds
  • it is made out of fewer internal parts
  • it solves camera shake issues
  • framing can help create better pictures
  • the results can come with crisp and sharper images
  • a prime lens creates a better depth of field control
  • the frame is always fixed and you have to manually find the objects you want in the frame
  • a basic prime lens is not drastically expensive

Photo Essay 2: Any Picture



This picture was taken on November 02, 2012. It was taken on a D3100 with a fisheye lens. I chose this photo because it was the first picture I've ever taken with this type of lens. I also really liked how it mainly focused on the group of flowers on the front and the magenta color on the flowers are really vivid. With the fisheye lens, it also made it look really zoomed in. It gave extra emphasis to the group of flowers in the middle and made it seem like there were rows of more flowers beyond them when there really wasn't. 




Photo Essay 4: Inanimate Objects

This is a sign that gives direction to an accessible route for handycap people. It is an inanimate object. The sign has no personality or life. I chose this picture because a sign has no other purpose but to direct, inform or convince. This may be the most boring picture to do a photo essay on but a majority of inanimate objects are boring as they do not talk or show any form of emotion with the exception of flowers and other inanimate objects that offers a person some sort of feeling. This sign, however, gives no emotion and is mainly to direct.
