When it comes to landscape photography, the standard lens of choice is the wide-angle, as many scenes demand a large angle of view to get everything into one frame. And while wide-angle lenses certainly have their place, other focal lengths are just as useful. This video tutorial discusses how to choose the right lens for a specific landscape scene.
Coming to you from Andy Mumford, this video tutorial discusses how to choose the right focal length for landscape work. A lot of the time, we default to using something like a 16-35mm lens for landscapes without a second thought. Certainly, wide-angle lenses are preferred for a reason, but the beauty of landscape photography is that there are so many other compositions available in a specific scene, and trying a longer focal length can help you pick out interesting individual elements or create more abstract images. And given how popular wide angle shots are, it can help your work stand out from the crowd a bit. Check out the video below for the full rundown from Mumford.
