Taking Portrait Picture
Not every picture is the same and each picture is made different by the type of picture it is, that is full length, portrait and so on. To be able to take good portrait pictures there is a certain type of lens that you have to use to get the image right. In the following paragraphs I will mention a few things to think about when taking a portrait photo.
In choosing a lens for a portrait you must take into account the prevailing conditions of the environment that you want to take the photo in. Light, wind etc. You need think about the focal length. Why this is a consideration is because it is dependant upon the film size. So you would find that in taking a portrait using a 35mm camera you would use a 105mm lens, a 80mm camera you would need a 160 mm lens. You can see then how the size of the film has an effect on the lens that you choose and the eventual picture that you take.
If you are unsure as to how to make these adjustments in focal length, size of lens and film you can always ask around from fellow photographers who understand the concept better . It is one of those things that is better explained in a practical set up than a theoretical one like this one.
The view of a picture is dependant on how near you are to the subject and not the size of the lens. What I am saying is the view of a picture will remain the same even if you change the size of the lens. What will be different is the number of things that will appear in each image that is the scope. This is assuming of course you are taking pictures from exactly the same point without changing anything except focal length.
Like I said before to fully appreciate the effect a lens has on a portrait picture would be best understood in a practical set up by experimenting with different size lens until you have grasped the concept well.You will be able to find some great DSLR cameras and lenses at any one of these:
