Canon had two types of 600mm fixed-focus lenses, the RF600mm F11IS, and the RF600mm F4. The RF600mm F11IS ATM lens has the following features: - The price was relatively affordable. For example, on the e-commerce platform, the time limit of the RF600mm F11IS ATM ultra-telephoto fixed-focus lens dropped from 5298 yuan to 4499 yuan. - The lens structure consisted of seven sets of 10 lenses, a filter diameter of 82mm, a closest focusing distance of 4.5 meters, a fixed F11 aperture, and a drive unit driven by an ATM step motor. It weighed 930 grams. - It has a DO lens. One piece of DO lens can achieve the compensation effect of fluorite lens and aspheric lens. It uses a set of seamless double-layer structure DO lens, which can cause more light to be refracted, suppress glare, and improve image quality. - When paired with the RF1.4x or RF2x, they could achieve an ultra-telephoto focal length of 840mm or 1200mm respectively. - The lightweight mirror body and the IS Image Stabilizer with a shutter speed of up to level 5 provided strong support for hand-held shooting. It was suitable for shooting wild birds, animals, airplanes, trains, scenery, outdoor sports, and many other subjects. The RF600mm F4 super telephoto fixed-focus lens weighed 3090 grams. It was an excellent bird-hunting lens that could be used with the Canon R series 'small and portable body to meet the needs of high quality and lightweight. Read more exciting novels for free
Although the Canon 400mm f5.6 fixed-focus lens had many advantages, there were also some aspects that were ridiculed. In terms of aperture, its maximum aperture was only f5.6. In the case of insufficient light, it might affect the shutter speed, resulting in poor shooting results. At the same time, it would also affect the background blurring effect. There was a lack of anti-shake function, and it was easy to blur when shooting with a hand-held camera. In terms of focusing distance, the closest focusing distance was 3.5 meters, which would be limited when shooting close-up objects. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
The fixed-focus lens was suitable for shooting various subjects, including portraits, scenery, indoors, and environments. Canon's 35mm fixed-focus lens was suitable for shooting culture and scenery. It was especially suitable for shooting small scenes of culture and scenery. It focused quickly and was often used to shoot landscape portraits and indoor portraits. Canon's 50mm fixed-focus lens was a standard lens. Its angle of view was similar to that of the human eye. It was suitable for shooting long-distance scenery and people. It had a bright and blurred effect. The quality of the image was excellent and practical. It was the first choice for group photos. Canon's 85mm fixed-focus lens was the golden focal length of portrait fixed-focus lenses. It was suitable for shooting portraits and had good image quality and practicality. As for the 135mm fixed-focus lens, some people called it a conscience lens. It was cheap and practical, so it was popular with everyone. In general, the fixed-focus lens was suitable for shooting various subjects, and the image quality was better than the zoom lens.
The Nikon 200mm f/2G ED VR II was a professional portrait fixed-focus lens, also known as the "air cutter." It could handle exciting moments in sports events, but it was best to use a tripod to shoot because the lens was heavy, about 2930g, and the camera weighed more than 4100g. The lens had excellent resolution and sharpness. It used a super ED lens to suppress the dispersion phenomenon, and with a nano-crystal coating, the dispersion control effect was especially good. In terms of performance, before the aperture of F4, the blurring was natural, and the sharpness reached its best when the aperture contracted to F4 - F5.6. The sharpness of F8 began to decline. The anti-shake feature was VR II, which could increase the shutter speed by about four stops. When the anti-shake function was turned on, a relatively clear and sharp image could be obtained regardless of whether it was in Normal mode or Active mode. Its parameters were: the lens weight was about 2930g, the diameter x length (extended from the lens mount) was about 124mm (maximum diameter) x 203.5mm (calculated from the lens mount), the closest focusing distance was 1.9m, and the filter size was 52mm. It was a fast telephoto lens with a shock absorption function of VR II. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
Yongnuo had a variety of 35 fixed-focus lenses, such as the YN 35mm F2 Nikon Z-mount, YN 35mm F2S PDMS, YN 35mm F2CC Youth lens, etc. They were all full-frame lenses. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
The basic knowledge of the micro-single fixed-focus lens was as follows: * * 1. Strengths ** 1. * * Excellent image quality ** - In general, its performance in terms of resolution, out-of-focus imaging, anti-glare ability, and distortion control was better than that of a zoom lens of the same grade. For example, when a fixed-focus lens was used to shoot a landscape, it could more clearly show the details in the distance, and the distortion at the edge of the picture was smaller. 2. * * Portableness ** - The structure of the fixed-focus lens was relatively simple, the design complexity was low, and the focal length was single. This made the body of the mirror more compact, and it was easy to carry while ensuring better image quality. For example, when traveling, a small fixed-focus lens would not add too much burden to the luggage. 3. * * Large aperture characteristic ** - It was easy to achieve a large aperture with a fixed-focus lens. Compared to the common "big three-dimensional" zoom lens, its aperture was usually larger. A large aperture could obtain a shallow depth of field, thereby achieving a better background blurring effect. In portrait photography, it could highlight the main body and make the separation between the character and the background more obvious. * * 2. Different focal lengths and lens recommendations (Canon as an example)** 1. * * Wide-angle ** - The RF16f/2.8 was the recommended lens. Although there were more wide-angle zooming lenses, the quality of the lens was high and the price was relatively cheap (about 2K). 2. * * Short focal length ** - For half-frame cameras, 24mm and 35mm lenses were good. They had a larger aperture and anti-shake function, but 35mm lenses were more recommended. For full-frame cameras, 35mm lenses were also recommended. It was a relatively standard human lens, and the price was basically around 4K. The 28mm lens cost about 2K and was also available as an option. 3. * * Middle Jiao ** - I recommend the RF85 f/2 lens. The RF50f/1.8 was not recommended. Unless the price was around 1K, the image quality was poor when the aperture was fully open. The probability of purple edges was high and serious, and the focus was slow and noisy. If the budget was sufficient, the RF85f/1.2 was also a good choice. The 85mm focal length was recognized as the king of fixed focus portraits, providing good blurring and photo effects when shooting outdoors. 4. * * Telephoto ** - The RF100f/2.800 micro lens was a classic. It was suitable for macro and close-up shots and cost about 10K. In theory, the photorealistic effects of the RF135f/1.8 were better than the RF85f/2. The blurring was more obvious and the atmosphere was stronger, but the price was about 15K. 5. * * Ultra Telephoto ** - If you had to choose a fixed-focus lens, you could consider the RF800f/11, which was about 1K more expensive than the RF600f/11. For users who were familiar with using the 600mm lens to find and track targets, the 800mm lens was also easier to control. However, in the field of super telephoto lenses, zooming lenses were more popular because it was easier to find a target. However, the fixed-focus lens did not have an absolute advantage in all aspects: * * 3. Current development situation compared to zooming lenses ** 1. * * In terms of image quality ** - In the past, fixed-focus lenses were much better than zoom lenses in terms of image quality, but now in the era of micro-lenses, the image quality of mainstream brands (Canon, Soni, Nikon) had greatly improved. Although there was still a small gap compared to the top fixed-focus lens, the gap was not obvious compared to the mid-range fixed-focus lens or even some old top-notch fixed-focus lenses. In some aspects, the zoom lens even performed better. In terms of satisfying the needs of most commercial photography (not especially those that needed a large aperture), the large three-dimensional zoom lens was a good choice because of its high work efficiency. 2. * * Large aperture characteristics ** - Large apertures were no longer exclusive to fixed-focus lenses. There were already brands that had introduced super large aperture zoom lenses, such as Canon's RF28 - 70mm f2.0 lens, which could achieve a constant f2.0 large aperture in the common focal length of 28mm-70mm. It could replace many ordinary f1.8 aperture fixed-focus lenses, and the quality of each focal length was excellent. Tenglong, Sima, etc. also had similar large-aperture zoom lenses. As technology developed, there would be more and more such lenses. 3. * * Video shooting ** - At a time when video shooting had become a mainstream creative method, zooming lenses had an advantage. Video shooting required a large zoom range, constant aperture, stable image quality, and good anti-shake performance. There were many zoom lenses that met these conditions, such as the 24 - 105mm F4 zoom lens. For video shooting, the need for a fixed-focus lens was reduced because the video did not require a large aperture (a large aperture would make the depth of field of a large-sized sensor device too shallow, which was not suitable for video subjects; for small-sized sensor devices, a large aperture could also be achieved in a zoom lens). However, for plane photography, high-quality, large-aperture fixed-focus lenses were still the first choice for many photographers, but they were more often used in conjunction with zooming lenses rather than a single choice. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
If you use a 50mm F1.8 fixed-focus lens to shoot a full-body portrait and achieve a blurring effect, you can start from the following aspects: 1. ** Aperture setting **: Use aperture priority exposure mode and use a larger aperture, such as F1.8, but F1.8 aperture may not be very good. You can also choose to shoot at an aperture between F2 - F3. If the aperture was reduced to F2.8, F4.0, or even F8, the blurring effect would be worse. 2. [Distance between character and background: Keep the character as far away from the background as possible.] If the character was close to the background, such as a wall, a tree, or a bush, the background would be difficult to blur, but if the character was slightly away from the background, it would be easier to blur the background. 3. ** Choice of subjects **: When shooting children, the background blurring effect is often stronger and more beautiful than when shooting adults. 4. ** Shooting Range **: When shooting an adult, try to shoot a half-body portrait. This will help to achieve background blurring, and the blurring effect is often not obvious when shooting full-body photos of adults. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
Canon lenses and Nikon lenses were well-known brands in the field of camera lenses. In terms of Nikon lenses, the new Z-mount lenses were generally of high quality, such as holo-field compatibility and excellent corner resolution. The F-mount was limited by the caliber and the distance between the two sides, while the Z-mount had a great improvement in this aspect, especially in the wide-angle to mid-focal length section. Canon lenses, such as the RF28 - 70mm F2.8 lens, had a constant large aperture of F2.8. It was portable, and the image quality was average, even a little beyond the positioning of the silver ring lens. It also had anti-shake function. However, its price was sometimes affected by marketing routines. For example, during the 11/11 period, the price of Canon RF28 - 70mm was higher than the recommended price on the official website and did not return to normal value. These two lenses had their own optical design features, advantages, and market positioning under different camera mount systems. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
The Canon Q camera was a full-frame, compact, and high-performance camera. It was the first compact camera from Canon that was equipped with a full-frame sensor and a fixed-focus lens. It could truly reproduce the world in the eyes and share photos within seconds through the Wi-Fi function. It was fast and intuitive, made in Germany, with a 28mm fixed-focus lens, 3.68MP EVF, an extremely fast lens, Wi-Fi function, high-speed lens, and natural quality. In addition, the M-System was a full-frame camera with a classic design and an outstanding M-lens series. The system had the characteristics of a fast, versatile, and compact rangefinder camera, suitable for photography enthusiasts. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
The fixed-focus lens only had a fixed focal length. It had the advantages of accurate focus, fine picture, light graininess, accurate light measurement, stable image quality, and so on. It was more common in landscape photography, group photo taking, and film production. Different focal lengths of fixed-focus lenses had different characteristics and uses. If he only brought a fixed-focus lens with him, he would have to consider the shooting requirements first. If the main focus was to shoot portraits, the 85mm fixed-focus lens was a good choice. It was regarded by many professional photographers as the king focal length for shooting portraits. Its shooting angle was about 28 degrees, and with a large aperture, the background could be easily simplified to highlight the characters. The background blurring effect was good, and the image quality was basically at the ceiling level of the various lens quality. The distance from the full-body to the close-up was about 1.5 meters to 5 meters. This distance allowed the photographer to maintain a relatively comfortable distance from the model and avoid the pressure. If one wanted to take into account both the landscape and the portrait, the 50mm fixed-focus lens was more suitable. It was often called the standard lens, and its focal length was closer to the perspective of the human eye, so the imaging effect was natural. The 35mm fixed-focus lens had a strong sense of space and a large viewing range. The closer the object was to the lens, the larger it looked. It was suitable for landscape photography. At the same time, it could also be used for cultural and street scenes. It was more story-telling when shooting. However, fixed-focus lenses also had some limitations. For example, the angle of view was fixed. When shooting, one might need to walk around to adjust the composition. It might not be convenient for some scenes that needed to be quickly captured or the subject was difficult to control (such as travel shooting, street shooting, event shooting). Moreover, many fixed-focus lenses did not have a macro function. If there was a need for macro shooting, an additional macro lens was needed. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
Canon lenses mainly had the lens mount, which was Canon's full-frame single-lens reflex camera mount, as well as the lens mount, such as the ESF-S mount, the ESF-M mount, and the lens mount. Nikon lenses mainly had the lens mount, such as the F-mount, and the Z-mount. Their bayonet types were different, and their size, the distance between the two sides, the number and location of electronic contacts, and other parameters were also different. These differences determined the compatibility between the lens and the body, as well as the realization of functions. For example, Canon's RF-mount and Nikon's Z-mount were large-caliber mounts, but there were still differences in specific size and other characteristics. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
