Advantages of 50 mm fixed focus lens

A fixed-focus lens with a focal length of 50mm may be the largest type of fixed-focus lens in the hands of photographers. Whenever a photographer wants to buy the first fixed-focus lens and consult the master, the answer may be mostly 50mm fixed focus. So what is the charm of a 50mm lens? Why is this focal length lens suitable for beginners? Let me explain it to you.

First, the sense of reality

A lens with a focal length of 50 mm is also called a standard lens, because its viewing angle of about 39 degrees on the Quan Huafu is equivalent to that of the human eye. It is said that the lens is the photographer's third eye, and the world seen through the lens with a focal length of 50mm can truly restore the scene atmosphere at that time, which is very important for beginners of photography, because their photography technology is still very weak, and it is still difficult to control the distortion of wide-angle lens and master the sense of space of telephoto. Then the realism of 50mm focal length can be very good "what you see is what you get", so that beginners can concentrate on the scene in front of them and avoid taking unsatisfactory photos because of the lens.

Second, technical improvement.

The zoom lens can zoom in on the main body at will, which is easy to cultivate the inertia of beginners. But the fixed-focus lens forces beginners to pay attention to the subject, move their feet back and forth, and find the most suitable shooting distance and angle. This process actually drives beginners to improve their composition and makes them think about how to take good photos.

Third, large aperture.

Many photographers start with SLR because it is difficult to take photos of the combination of reality and reality with mobile phones, which is also the most fascinating place of SLR photography. It is easy to get fuzzy Jiao Wai with a large aperture of 50mm fixed focus. Although photography is not only a mathematical problem, the more blurred, the better, but the benefits of large aperture are not only shallow depth of field, but also allow photographers to speed up the shutter speed in low light, making it easier to create photos indoors.

Fourth, high cost performance.

With the development of photography technology, the head is the first lens and the most mature lens focal segment. It can be said that "there is no weakness in the head", and even the best zoom lens can't compare with the photo quality obtained by the fixed-focus lens under the best aperture. At the same time, the mature technology and simple structure make it much cheaper than other focal lengths, and it has a high cost performance for novices.

Fifth, small size.

SLR always reminds people of bulky volume, but the 50mm lens controls the volume very well. Compared with other fixed-focus lenses with the same large aperture, the 50mm focal length lens is always the smallest one. It is very likely that the novice is too lazy to take the SLR out because of the weight, and finally gradually ignores the interest in photography. However, the 50mm lens greatly reduces the burden on novices, and it is very convenient to carry around at any time, so you won't miss many unexpected things.

Sixth, portraits are necessary.

Beginners mostly buy cameras in APS-C format. The focal length of 50mm is equivalent to the 80mm viewing angle on EOS APS-C format camera, which is just the golden viewing angle for portrait shooting. You can take half-length and full-length photos in the most suitable range from the subject, which is the gospel for beginners of portrait photography. At the same time, 50mm is also a good choice for shooting environmental portraits and close-up portraits on a full-frame camera.

For beginners of photography, it is a very wise choice to put away their impetuous heart, use the 50mm lens in the mobile phone first, and then try other focal lengths.
