Camera lenses

Camera lenses are optical devices that focus light onto the camera sensor to capture an image. They come in different types with varying focal lengths, affecting how much of the scene is included and the depth of field—how blurry or sharp background and foreground appear. Wide-angle lenses capture broader scenes, while telephoto lenses zoom in on distant subjects. Aperture size influences brightness and depth of field; a larger aperture lets in more light and creates a blurred background, ideal for portraits. Overall, lenses shape the perspective and quality of your photograph, making them essential tools for creative expression in photography.
