Lenses and Photography Vocabulary

I would use a telephoto lens to capture a subject that is to far away to take a decent picture of. Like an animal in the wild, or a player in a soccer game. These are are subjects i need to be able to zoom in on to get the desired shot.

I would use a prime lens to capture a subject that is close to me and i can angle myself around. Like a model posing.

I would use a wide-angle lens to capture a large subject or a scenery picture. Like a large field or beach that is busy and full of excitement.

Depth of Field (shallow and wide)- The amount of shadows in the picture that make up the dept in the subject.
Light (angle and intensity)- The lighting in the photo and how it bounces and plays with the subjects look in the photo.

Aperture (f-stop)- Is how wide the lens is at the time they photo is being taken.
Shutter speed- The part of the lens that helps stop movement and slow down any objects in the photo.
