Super-telephoto...what?


Wow! Talk about mind boggling…I feel like I do when my roommate starts talking about organic chemistry! Super-telephoto lenses....what? Focal length, lens speed, brand, zoom telephotos, and auto-focus all seem like very important concepts when attempting to take a great photograph. This section breaks down and explains some of the reasoning behind different lenses and their purpose. For instance, the paragraph on lens color discusses how black super-telephotos appear classy, white ones are intended to reflect heat and most nature lenses are camouflage to blend with its surroundings. There is also a lens for shooting in precipitation that protects your camera while managing to capture great pictures that you had intended on getting before nature’s interference. Image stabilization is extremely important as well as the lens focus. I would probably choose the 500mm lens because like in the photo above, it has proven to get the job done!
