Quan Huafu SLR, what is the experience of replacing zoom lens with fixed focus lens?

Quan Huafu SLR, which is destined to be a working machine, is a practical choice, not a good heart of wayward literary youth, nor a high-end toy. Therefore, for Quan Huafu SLR, it is not recommended to buy or only use fixed-focus lenses.

Fixed focus lens is the best choice for shooting sketch!

Fixed focus lens is still very fun. The above shooting effect is actually beyond the reach of dual-camera mobile phones!

You can give it a try, shoot the above theme with a dual-camera phone and see how rubbish the dual-camera phone is!

If you plan to play mainly with fixed-focus lenses, I actually think you can give priority to Panasonic micro-single or Fuji micro-single, because Panasonic and Fuji have many very good fixed-focus lenses for you to play with.

Ok, let's talk about Quan Huafu SLR camera. Is it a fixed focus lens or a zoom lens? If you only play fixed focus, what is the experience?

First, in fact, when we play mobile phone photography, we basically play fixed-focus lenses. However, the fixed-focus lens of mobile phone photography is quite different from that of Quan Huafu SLR. This difference is mainly due to the blurred background.

Even the dual-camera mobile phone has blurred background, which is still far from the fixed-focus lens of digital SLR.

Generally speaking, we can equate the feeling and experience of playing fixed-focus lens with the feeling and experience of playing mobile phone photography.

Personally, I actually have many cameras and lenses. However, in the last six months, I like Canon 200D and Canon 50mmF 1.8STM lenses in APS format best. Small, light and practical, LCD auto-focus speed is ok. Of course, I mainly shoot children. This combination is easy to carry and can meet the needs of shooting children anytime and anywhere, so it is my main force.

Fixed focus lens, capturing children is still very good.

Parents shoot children, I generally recommend buying a 50mm or 85mm fixed-focus lens, which costs several hundred yuan to two or three thousand yuan, which has already had a very good shooting effect (shooting children, lively children, it is still not recommended to use a dual-camera mobile phone, at least the current dual-camera mobile phone is still very reluctant! )

Third, many people like sweeping the streets. Let me recommend cameras and lenses. I generally recommend Panasonic GX85 with Panasonic 20mmF 1.7 lens. This combination is really the first choice for sweeping the street. I believe that if Bresson lived to see a shot, he would also like this combination.

Fourth, for bird photographers, there is nothing they can do. They can only be telephoto guns. 300mmF2.8 is just the beginning, and 600mmF4.0 is their main lens.

5. For some portrait photographers who are not in the photo studio or studio, in fact, 85mm fixed focus or 50mm fixed focus is indeed more practical than 70-200 mm (but for photo studios and photography studios, 70-200mm is still the most commonly used, which is the main force. )

85mm or 50mm fixed focus, light, holding no 70-200 mm tired.

Sixth, for photography enthusiasts, if it is an entry, it is recommended to buy a 50mm fixed-focus lens. You must force yourself to like and adapt, and you must practice and practice for a period of time with 50 mm, which is basic.

Seven, for documentary photography, I mean documentary photography, such as conference photography, business photography, wedding photography, children's photography, really still need a large aperture fixed-focus lens, 24mmF 1.4, 35mmF 1.4, 50 mm1.4, these are all necessary.

To sum up: in fact, I personally like fixed-focus lenses very much. After all, compared with camera phones, the biggest advantage and charm of interchangeable lens cameras are these large aperture fixed-focus lenses with different focal lengths.

If you don't have a large aperture fixed-focus lens, then, I think, you might as well play mobile phone photography.

I wonder if the subject has ever known about Leica's M series. Although it can't be called a SLR, the M series can be said to be unique in the current camera industry-because it only has a fixed focus lens. (although m has two three-segment lenses, it is not a continuous zoom in the conventional sense. )

Leica is a pioneer in full-frame camera size. Leica prototype defines the size of Quan Huafu (that is, a film of 135), and Leica M series can be said to be the overlord of Quan Huafu models more than half a century ago.

So what is the experience of using only a fixed-focus lens?

Experience-Generally speaking, lenses with similar prices have better imaging quality with fixed-focus lenses.

The optical structure of fixed-focus lens is simple, so under the same design and manufacturing level, the optical quality that fixed-focus lens can achieve far exceeds that of zoom lens, such as dispersion control, resolution, corner imaging quality, distortion control and so on.

Production of Leica lens

Fixed focus lens is suitable for scenes with different light, with low refraction distortion rate, less light loss and clear imaging;

Leica M 10+50/ 1.4

Leica M 10+75/ 1.25

In addition, the aperture of the fixed-focus lens is relatively large, generally 1.4 or even larger, so it has obvious advantages when shooting at night or in weak light. The large aperture can also capture the beautiful scenery with blurred background, making Jiao Wai "melt like frost".

You can also take clearer photos in a dark environment, but remember not to abuse the large aperture ~

The picture was taken by Bill Rosauer using Leica M240+50/0.95.

Experience 2 usually does not need to look at the viewfinder.

Simply put, stick to a lens for a long time, and eventually you will be very, very familiar with it. You will find that you can know what composition you can shoot without putting your eyes on the viewfinder, and you can imagine the final picture without looking back.

In this way, you won't waste too much time on the photo just now, but you will have more time to find the right subject for the next photo and capture the fleeting excitement.

Zoom lenses spoil people. When you raise your hand and find that what you are interested in can't fill your picture, zoom in a little. You don't think about whether to choose a new perspective and change the composition. After a year or two, you may need to raise your camera to know what kind of picture you can probably construct.

If you only use the zoom lens, there are too many convenient options for you to easily take available photos. This picture is too messy? Then zoom in and take a close-up!

Although this is a very simple and easy-to-use method, it leaves you a lot of room for thinking.

Black and white can also effectively reduce the clutter of the picture. The image was taken by James Kezman with a 75/2.5 lens.

If fixed focus is used, how to solve this problem?

Turn black and white? Take a closer look and take a photo with a shallow depth of field? Take a few more steps and change the angle? Maybe you will find another angle more interesting, so this photo of you is not just as simple as "pressing the shutter".

In the long run, if you only have a fixed focus, your photography will make rapid progress.

Experience 3

Become more diligent

Because the focal length is fixed, you can't be lazy when shooting, and you can't twist the zoom ring like a zoom lens by feeling, so in order to get a better composition effect, you will move your position to find the best composition point. This requires constant walking and constant trying.

In addition, one more sentence, some people may say that "zoom lens can also cultivate a sense of distance and focus", but for many novices, they may not know where they screwed the zoom ring when shooting, just looking at the viewfinder and shooting by feeling. If you want to ask him what shot he is shooting now, he may not be able to answer it himself.

Leica M 10 real-time view. You know exactly what focal length you are using, and you know exactly what image you can get from this focal length.

Experience 4 is really light.

Only one fixed-focus lens is really light.

A Quan Huafu SLR plus a standard zoom lens is about 4 kilograms, right? This is equivalent to carrying a bucket of 2L mineral water around. Therefore, people who play photography must have amazing arm strength, otherwise the camera will shake before long, and the five-axis anti-shake will not be saved.

If it is M 10+35/2, a set is only over 900 g, and M is a full-frame camera! A set of Quan Huafu weighs less than 2 kg, so it is obviously convenient to take it out for shooting.

There are many advantages to using a fixed-focus lens, but I'm not belittling the zoom lens. It's just that the fixed-focus lens has some unique advantages that the zoom lens can't give, and each has its own advantages. Fixed-focus lenses can't switch perspectives and control different themes as easily as zoom lenses.

However, as mentioned above, the fixed-focus lens can play a very positive role in our photography, especially for beginners. It will limit us, force us to think, and let us learn and grow quickly.

This is the biggest gift from the fixed-focus lens.

That's how I use it. My Quan Huafu SLR camera only keeps four fixed-focus lenses.

They are Fu Lunda's 20mm fixed focus, Canon's 50mmf 1.2L, Canon's 50mf1.8stm and Canon's 300mm f2.8LII

Among them, the 20mm lens has been idle for a long time, because there is really no theme suitable for super wide angle in the city. It's boring to shoot those cement forests without moving the axis. The 300mm lens is too big, and it is only used in special occasions. Usually two 50mm lenses are used in turn.

Actually, I'm used to it, and there's nothing inconvenient about a fixed-focus lens.

Human eyes and mobile phone cameras are fixed-focus lenses. One of the reasons why I like the 50mm lens best is that when you feel that the scenery in front of you brightens your eyes, you can shoot it without thinking too much. In the early composition, it is very advantageous!

Finally send a few pictures:

20 mm

50 mm

300 mm

Quan Huafu SLR, only fixed focus lens instead of zoom lens. If you really want to take good photos, I'm afraid the camera bag will be very heavy!

Even such a big camera bag can only hold 4-5 fixed-focus lenses of a full-frame machine at most.

24 mm F 1.4, 35 mm F 1.4, 50 mm F 1.2, 85 mm F 1.2, 135 mm F2.

Can't I bring the combination of 16-35mm, 70-200mm, 50mmF 1.2, 100mm macro and 2X? If I want to have fun shooting outside, I will definitely bring this combination.

So it's a gimmick to use only a huge fixed-focus lens. The fun of photography lies in the change of perspective. No change, no matter how big the aperture is.

Now I don't know where the strange atmosphere comes from, and I am desperately blowing fixed-focus lenses and large apertures. Is it true that only the background blur is taken into account without considering the large depth of field?

I taught myself photography through several stages.

There were only two zoom lenses at first, 28-70, 70-2 10.

Later, I bought a fixed focus 85, and I felt that the aperture was large.

Then eliminated the original camera and put it in medium format. There is no zoom in the middle frame, and 40mm, 80mm and 250mm are equipped with three lenses.

Post-autofocus era, advanced zoom and combined focus, 24mm, 50mm, 70-200mm, 2X.

Then buy Leica M6, 24mm, 50mm, 135mm. Together with the prototype given to me by the company, Leica's fixed focus is almost complete.

Then combined with Olympus OM4TI, plus almost five combinations of fixed focus and zoom.

In the digital age, I bought almost all the advanced fixed focus and advanced zoom of C family, and 16-400mm is basically complete.

Together with Fuji XE2, Leica M series is combined, with 5 fixed focus and 2 zoom.

M43 plus a full set of lenses, covering 14-800mm.

Finally, the latest product is the R series manual zoom lens.

From zoom to fixed focus, to zoom, to fixed focus, and finally back to zoom.

Feeling: The fixed-focus lens is relatively light and has a good sense of coordination with the fuselage, but it can only be used as a supplement to the zoom lens.

When shooting the sunrise, I only brought a few fixed-focus lenses. As a result, when the scenery suddenly changed, it was too late to change the lens. Fortunately, I brought a second fuselage and a Leica 75 mm lens. I took a random photo. It's hard to imagine that this photo that needs a tripod was taken by hand. Thanks to the fixed-focus lens, it is light and stable, and we also blame the fixed-focus lens for its unchanged viewing angle.

You can imagine how to quickly calm down your inner madness when you can't change your perspective. Therefore, the shooting of this photo missed a good opportunity and my mentality was not well controlled. In fact, you can even see this messy mood from the picture.

Myself, when I go out, I only use a fixed-focus lens, that is, street shooting, with only 1-2 lens. This is the only case where all fixed-focus lenses are carried.

Young people should never be superstitious about large aperture fixed focus lenses. When shooting, the lens that suits you is the best lens.

Quan Huafu SLR, what is the experience of fixed focus without zooming?

I can only say that it is to lose weight.

I have three yuan with me, but I don't like to take a few lenses out when I'm not working, because it's really heavy. I used to go out for leisure, but I was exhausted from holding these lenses, let alone playing.

Therefore, if I usually go out with a camera, I will choose 35. Usually go out to play, meet interesting things, 35 frames are enough to capture wonderful moments. I'm actually a little tired of taking pictures of beautiful women. I won't press the shutter if I don't go out to play much, so there is no need to bring a telephoto. Although it is not wide enough to satisfy the beautiful scenery, just hold the camera steady, take more pictures and come back to take pictures. If it is a date between friends, bring two more shots, one is 50 and the other is 85.

In fact, the main reason for choosing fixed focus is the comfortable image quality. Under the same conditions, the image quality of fixed focus is higher than that of zoom. Take your own photos when you go out to play. I am a perfectionist, and I have a high demand for image quality. At the same time, the weight of the fixed focus is lighter than that of the big three yuan, so I choose to hang up the fixed focus and go out.

Daily shooting 50, 35, etc. has shortcomings. Sometimes you can't shoot the desired picture at this distance. Two steps forward may be a puddle or even a cliff. With zoom, it will be much more convenient, and fixed-focus shooting basically depends on walking.

Quan Huafu SLR, using only fixed-focus lens, is what kind of experience. This premise is Quan Huafu, so we omit the conversion factor, and the viewing angle range of 35mm is 35mm. This is a basis for training a strong sense of lens.

Fixed-focus lens, because of the internal optical structure, we can easily get super-large aperture and very high image quality, which is beyond doubt. The only drawback, or inconvenience, is that you can't zoom, or zoom basically depends on walking. In fact, some people say that a fixed-focus lens can zoom by moving. This statement is actually very one-sided. In many cases, the fixed-focus lens is very limited.

People who use zoom lenses often see the scene in front of them. Pick up the camera and then turn the zoom ring to make it bigger and smaller, farther and closer. Shooting is a pleasure. But shooting like this often makes us forget to think.

Thinking before shooting can make us calm down and think more carefully about the picture, composition, color and artistic conception.

Taking pictures is actually a parameter of playing. Commonly used parameters are shutter, aperture, ISO, focal length, white balance and composition, so leave white balance and ISO to automatic, and generally control shutter and aperture. What is the difference between fixed focus and zoom? Raising the hand is fixed focus, twisting the camera is zoom, and the Quan Huafu SLR with fixed focus is actually the best picture quality, and the pursuit is speed. You can control the shutter and put the aperture. In this way, there are few parameters that need to be adjusted in the whole shooting. Just consider the subject to be photographed and use the appropriate shutter. All the photos were taken with your hands raised. Zooming is actually unnecessary. Go back and cut out the whole photo and re-compose it if necessary. Everything is available. This is the ultimate configuration for speed and image quality. The evaluation has been completed.

It is normal for Quan Huafu to use only fixed-focus lenses instead of zoom lenses. Only in the past thirty years, the development of zoom lens is so good, especially the imaging quality of "bull's head" represented by various "big ternary" lenses is very good, so people gradually accept the use of zoom lens to complete shooting.

(Photo of 20 14 and its parameters)

It's actually a layman's idea to entangle a fixed-focus lens or a zoom lens. If it is a professional photography field, it will not be entangled in zooming or focusing at all.

Let me briefly talk about the advantages and disadvantages of fixed focus zoom:

Zoom, as the name implies, is that the lens can realize the conversion of different focal lengths through the lens barrel structure, which is more adaptable in use. However, a lens structure not only brings the disadvantages of complex structure, heavy weight and high price by changing the different distances of the lens, but also makes the optimization of the lens optical path a very difficult problem, so the imaging of the zoom lens will be much worse than that of the fixed focus lens.

On the contrary, the fixed-focus lens has a simple structure and targeted optical path optimization, and the imaging quality is several blocks different from that of the fixed-focus lens. And the price is much cheaper than the zoom head with the same aperture/technical index. The disadvantage is that the coke joint is fixed and needs to be replaced when it is used, which is more troublesome.

The zoom lens can only be selected when shooting in some specific fields, such as sports photography, news photography, meeting follow-up and so on.

Speaking of experience, W Jun signed gettyimage and has 8 years of professional photography experience. 90% of movies are shot with fixed focus.

I'm used to fixed focus, even the trumpet at hand is a fixed focus model: two Grd, one x 100 and two r 1. It is basically not inconvenient to take pictures with you.

The most commonly used zoom in the above picture is 24- 105, not for convenience, but Minolta's 24- 105 seems to be an absolutely invincible combination when shooting natural scenery with Fuji pvr film. The blue photography system that can shoot the sky is a convenient photography system.

The choice of fixed focus will depend on the task, and the most successful fixed focus is the macro head with F4 aperture. Adapted to most of my creativity and still life photography. The advantage is that the lighting is too convenient. In the recent shooting example of 0.5 meters, the lighting is simply arbitrary.

For example, shoot Mao Hu:

Compared with ordinary telephoto, it is more advantageous to shoot flowers that customers ask to see pollen:

It can also be done perfectly by lighting a few lamps, or even shooting insects.

There is no need to stick to insects to cause trouble to small creatures.

If ordinary consumers say that focusing is inconvenient, they really don't know how to use the camera. Composition is the most important in the process of photography, and it is also more conducive to the cultivation of good composition habits through fixed focus from a familiar perspective.

I have been playing photography for many years! Mainly like to travel around. Fixed focus? It must be of good quality. But what's the use of good picture quality without interesting pictures? I like climbing mountains. I always change them. It's really hard to shoot the scenery without wide angle! I don't know why so many people recommend others to use fixed focus. Fixed focus limits the shooting range of the camera, and many wonderful pictures are missed in front of your fixed focus, which will really make people regret for a lifetime. Never say take more than ten steps and take more than ten steps back. A few steps on the cliff will kill you. Stand in front of the tall building and back to the wall! And you walk over and the snapshot is over! So I must have hung up. I won't use fixed focus unless I shoot a specific subject. It's really harmful to recommend others to shoot with fixed focus!
