If you only shoot still life, what focal length lens should the SLR use?

This depends on the size and shooting requirements of the "still life" mentioned by the landlord. If the landlord requires that the pattern on the coin or even the words printed on the paper money be clearly photographed, then it is impossible to use a macro lens for the D60-but the landlord also said that at present, he can't afford a fixed-focus lens (at present, Nikon's two main macro lenses are fixed-focus), so this choice has to be passed. ...

In fact, since the head of the D60 is in a near-focus state recently, it can be used for less rigorous close-range shooting. As for what focal length to use, it also depends on the specific situation: 1. If items are required to account for a large proportion of the screen size, try to get as close as possible and use a telephoto segment; 2. If you want to highlight the spatial perspective between several objects or objects and the environment, you can consider using a wide-angle end.

In addition, the requirements for lighting, background and so on in still life shooting are much higher than those for the lens. The wide applicability of the hood can completely shoot still life, but whether it can be shot well has the above two important influences. For example, a flat light will show that the object has no hierarchy, the side backlight can highlight the three-dimensional sense of the object, and the backlight can outline the outline of the object. The same simple background can make people focus on the object, but other carefully selected backgrounds (such as textured cotton cloth, etc. ) can also play an appropriate role in setting off. It takes a lot of practice to master all this skillfully.
