What lens should be used to exaggerate the prospect?

Exaggerate the foreground with a wide-angle lens.

Wide-angle lens is a photographic lens with shorter focal length, larger viewing angle, longer focal length and smaller viewing angle than standard lens. The focal length of a common wide-angle lens is generally 38-24 mm, and the viewing angle is 60-84 degrees. The ultra wide-angle lens has a focal length of 20- 13mm and a viewing angle of 94- 1 18 degrees.

Because the wide-angle lens has a short focal length and a large viewing angle, it can shoot a large area of scenery in a short shooting distance. Wide-angle digital camera has short focal length, wide viewing angle and deep scenery, which is suitable for taking photos of large scenes, such as architecture and scenery.

The role of wide-angle lens

It is an important performance of wide-angle lens to emphasize the prospect and highlight the contrast between far and near. The so-called emphasis on foreground and far-near contrast means that wide-angle lens can emphasize far-near contrast more than other lenses. In other words, the photos taken with wide-angle lens are closer and farther, which makes people feel that the distance has been widened and has a strong perspective effect in the depth direction. Especially when shooting with a super wide-angle lens with short focal length, the effect of being near big and far small is particularly remarkable.

Experienced photographers often add content, use wide-angle lenses to moderately deform the subject, and take some very inconspicuous scenes that people turn a blind eye to. Of course, using a wide-angle lens to express exaggeration and distortion should be based on the needs of the subject matter, and the second should be few and precise.
