The Lens king: 50MM F/1.4

Everybody think that while more focal distance, the lens covering a target higher. Thath is wrong. The objectives covering wide ranges of focal distance (eg 18-300mm) lose specialization, as they have to give a good result we shoot at 18mm, 120mm or 300mm, so I can not make excellent manner, but get fairly “acceptable” results. Instead, a target fixed focal length, for example 35mm, 50 or 80mm is a lens made especially for doing well in this focal length in particular, then it is their domain of expertise and therefore we offer the best optical quality .Definitely.

And why 50mm specifically? Because it has been shown that this is the view that our eyes normally cover in real life. A photo made with 50mm looks and proportions that our eyes see and our brain processes in real life.
Furthermore, ultra small focal length (for example 10mm) or longer (600mm) produces small optical distortions, sometimes undetectable.

And now comes the good …

The real beauty of this lens lies in the extraordinarily generous opening of its diaphragm. Many people bought objectives regardless of their diaphragm, but I would say it is one of the most important things you will or you will detract from our lens.
Is the opening or aperture allowing to capture more light. For you understand me, think of a situation where you had to take pictures in low light without flash. You’ve suffered a lot, because either you move the photo, or comes out with a lot of noise from the ISO, and so on.
What I mention now is the possibility of capturing a lot more natural light without having to resort to any ruse. Having a lens with a large aperture enables you to capture much more light than you could with a normal lens.
PS FYI opening diagram is expressed by the value f / … and when the smaller the value, the larger the aperture (and therefore more light the better). If you look at your target range, the base will surely find written on it some value of f / 3.5 or f / 4. Of which I speak today is an objective of f / 1.4, or be a opening tremendously wide.
