In the following article I will be discussing essential lens which the photographers must take care of before beginning their beautiful journey as a cameraperson or if taking it as professional. The followed article will be prove to be the best place you visited before getting started with. One of the exciting surface of DSLR photography is its ability or say capability to change the lens as per the requirement or need. Here you will be getting the right path of how to handle the lens that is available to what each one gone will open the whole new world of photography for you. In case the purchased DSLR is the very first camera of your itinerary as photographer then the concept of interchanging lens seems complicated.

Names that have been allotted to lens might seem to as confusing because of array of number used and letters that can actually create more perplexity. And Once you are familiar with the name of the lens it will not be that hard for you to easily figure out the lens which used on context of different subject and interchanging them during a shoot will become soon a second nature and more flexibility will be noticed.

Few things and points that one must keep at check before moving to types of lens is photography style and crop factor. There is no limit to the type of lenses that you will be using when on personal level. Before having different type of lens one must be sure on what kind of photography he or she likes and enjoys the most. In case you feel limited about the amount of subject you can fit into the image? Chances of appreciating the lens that offers best quality on far objects might be preferred by you as it clicks fast and efficiently with focus in mind in low light.

Crop Factor is another which one must know before getting introduced to type of lens as a beginners in DSLR photographers. It is good to keep the term Crop Factor in your mind. For the timing you only need to care about crop sensor size that affects on how closely the subject appears to you. This you can understand more clearly with an example. Consider a 50mm lens which is similar to human eye on full frame high-end DSLR camera. But in case you using 50mm lens with low to mid-end DSLR camera which uses 1.6 crop factor everything will seem to be bigger.

Types of Specialized Lens

50mm Prime Lens: It is a standard lens which is fairly close to the match of magnification made by human eye as well covering full frame DSLR camera. It is definitely not saying as our eyes are limited to 50mm. Rather human eye has wider view but in case you want to see a specific object through your eyes getting it viewed with 50mm lens the magnification would be very similar. It is a good lens for a variety of photography as you can capture a startling landscape as well as stunning portrait with the 50mm.

Telephoto Lens: Lenses larger than 50mm are telephoto lens. They are good of taking the wide range of photos. In case of Portrait one can use 85mm to 135mm lens that are for wildlife or hosted filed events. Lens come with a fixed focal length that remain as same or with zoom lens which can be focused from one focal length to another.

Wide Angle Lens: a lens which is smaller than 50mm is listed in it. For instance 25mm lens will give you twice diagonal filed a 50mm it is best for group photos, wide landscapes, covering tall building and allowing you to squeeze in twice as much information as you can in a 50mm.

A lens below 20mm is ultra-wide angle lens. It will offer depth of field and allow for more focus from the foreground to the object and from the object to the background in order to capture the right depth of field.
