As a consequence, faster lenses are difficult to work with, and so if you plan to go on a long hike or carry around equipment all day, working with a slower lens might be a good idea. Fast lenses are more expensive A fast lens can do everything a slow lens can do, and then some...
No. While I haven’t come across anyslow-focusing 70-200mm glass, not all lenses are equal, so I do encourage you to check my recommendations below or read reviews if AF speed is important to you. 5. The weight and size work in your favor Some people think the 70-200mm is a larg...
It's what high-end SLRs with big, expensive lenses are famous for. What SLRs do with physics, phones do with math. First they turn their 3D data into what's called a depth map, a version of the scene that knows how far away each pixel in the photo is from the camera. Pixels that...
