What scene is a wide-angle lens suitable for shooting

Wide-angle lens is a photographic lens with shorter focal length, larger viewing angle, longer focal length and smaller viewing angle than standard lens. There are various scenes suitable for shooting, as follows:

1. Sports: For sports that require large venues, such as football and baseball, telephoto is more suitable for capturing action moments, while for some personal performance sports, wide-angle shooting can sometimes get better pictures, such as skateboarding, bmx, cycling, skiing and even running, tennis and so on. If you want to highlight your personal performance, you can shoot at close range with a wide-angle lens from the backhand angle, and the wide-angle and backhand cooperate.

2. Astronomical themes such as the Milky Way, stellar orbit and meteor shower: shooting the Milky Way, stellar orbit and meteor shower can actually be regarded as landscape photography, and these themes are also suitable for wide-angle shooting. Take shooting the Milky Way as an example. In recent years, it is rare to see a clear Milky Way in the city. The Milky Way occupies a large sky at midnight in summer, and it is difficult to take a complete picture even with a wide-angle lens. Usually, the complete picture we see is usually formed by post-shooting, so we should use a broader perspective.

3. Architecture: In the field of architectural photography, wide-angle lenses are also widely used. For skyscrapers and other buildings in the city, wide-angle lens can record from a wider perspective. For indoor environment, such as shooting a room, wide-angle lens can shoot most rooms to better show the whole picture.
