GREAT FOR: WIDE APERTURE PORTRAITS & LANDSCAPES
This is what’s called a wide-angle fixed focal
length, or prime lens. Wide-angle lenses are
ideal for capturing expansive vistas, such as
landscapes or cityscapes, or being creative
with environmental portraits as you can
include lots of the person’s surroundings. In
addition, its very wide aperture of f/2.8 is great
for producing soft, blurred backgrounds.

There will be times when your kit lens doesn’t
have the ‘reach’ to capture your subject
su iciently, as they end up disappointingly
small in the picture. So to fill the frame with
distant objects, a telezoom lens is needed.
Though optically powerful, this is a compact,
lightweight lens that removes the type of
restriction some shooting situations present,
for example, filling the frame with your child’s
face at the school play or capturing that all-
important sporting event from the sidelines.
It also has OIS built in to keep things sharp
when hand-holding in low light.
