Hi everyone,
I found myself using 50mm + for landscape shots.
My 20/1.8 & 14-24/2.8 are collecting dust.
Is this a general thing to change taste?
Will I ever use those wide angles again?
I think the ‘Shift’ in my brain happened after Steve’s video was explaining and proving that focal length and depth of field have nothing in common. It is the subject size in the frame thar matters. No difference how I got the subject to fill the frame, by walking up to it with a wide angle, or by using higher magnification lenses.
The only difference is the perspective / compression effect.
Before that video, I was under the impression that wider angle would give more DOF and longer glass would give less. Since I wanted everything to be sharp, I went with wide angles blindly.
