Focal Length Assignment

 The Sony Cybershot DSC-W100 has a 3.00x optical zoom and a 38-114mm focal length 

The following shots demonstrate the  different angle of view I experimented with  ( Telephoto &  Wide Angle )

A group shot using the Telephoto Lens. With this lens our subjects are framed tightly in the shot and look closer to each other. It emphasizes on our characters physic and expression.


The same group shot was taken from the exact same place using the Wide Angle Lens. The wide angle lens increases the range of view. This emphasizes on the surroundings rather then focusing on our subjects.


 Now here is another shot using the telephoto lens, subjects were placed one behind another as that of line. Again our characters were framed tightly in the shot.



The same shot was taken again using the wide angle lens. The wide angle lens focuses emphasizes on the foreground while leaving the background big and narrow. 


This portrait shot was taken using the telephoto lens. i zoomed it about about 6 feet away from my subject. Dimitrios is framed correctly in the shot. 


This photo was taken with the wide angle lens. I had to approach the camera really close to my subject in order to get Dimitrios framed in the shot. The background seems stretched. 




After reviewing all of my photos i can conclude that the telephoto lens is rather better for taken pictures of people or objects. On the other hand the wide angle lens emphasizes on the background rather then the subject. The wide angle lens is ideal for scenery shots.
