4.7. ASSIGNMENT
How Lenses Work
Photograph a scene or subject using the widest angle lens you own, and then photograph the same scene using the longest (telephoto) lens you have. If you are using a zoom, just zoom all the way in and then all the way out. What differences in the scene or subject can you see? Which image do you prefer and why? Are you able to keep the same settings to expose the image, or do you have to change them? What did you change, and why? Also, did you change your physical position to achieve a similar perspective, or did you simply stand in one place and have one wide and one narrow shot? Post your photos to the Web site.
For this assignment, I used a 1D Mark IIn with EF 24-70mm f/2.8L at 24mm (left) and EF 70-200mm f/2.8L at 200mm (right) lenses. For the full extension on the 70-200mm lens, I had to move all the way to the other side of the studio to get the shot. Both images taken at ISO 125, 1/200 second, f/9.
