is arguably the most popular focal length for photographers due to its versatility, being equally at home shooting portraits as well as being wide enough to fill the frame with interest.

Vignetting is something of a non-issue, given that Fujifilm’s in-camera correction produces images with virtually none. It is slightly visible, shooting wide open, but is all but gone when shooting at f/2.8. It is rather academic as even when shooting wide open, you will be hard pushed to notice it unless you are photographing paint drying on a wall. Sigma 16mm F1.4 DC DN C for Z Mount The expert photographers have been recognised for their contribution to a wide range of photographic genres from the high-speed world of Motorsport to Landscapes and Specialist portraiture. Not just because it’s large in the frame, but it’s also off-centered, has dramatic light on it, and is a bright warm color that draws the eye. All things working in my favour.Use a wide lens to take photos of people that show their environment (think the shop keeper in the example above), add a sense of fun or even humour, or tell a story. But know it will likely not be flattering to the subject. What are 50mm lenses best for? Why You Need a 50mm Lens: They’re Great for Low-Light Shooting. If you really want to expand your photographic capabilities, a 50mm lens will allow you to do so because they’re great for taking photos when lighting is low. With maximum apertures of f/2 and larger, 50mm lenses can collect a lot of light. Above: Astro-photography is another key subject for ultra-wide lenses, and here the broad coverage has allowed me to easily grab a nice landscape element of the South Downs facing North in this five second exposure on the EOS R6 at 1600 ISO and with the lens wide-open at f2.8. The big question though is how those stars look, especially close to the edges of the frame when the aperture is wide-open. Yes 16mm is wide enough. Because most of the landscape is so grand and sweeping, you could probs shoot it with a 50mm. What does a 16 50mm lens mean? When I’m out shooting landscape photography, I tend to reach for a wide-angle zoom lens such as the XF10-24mm zoom however I also use the new XF18mm f1.4 interchangeably.

Here’s those three clips side by side, with no stabilisation at all on the left, basic digital stabilisation in the middle and enhanced movie stabilisation on the right.

You’ll see it on a few of the other Fujifilm lenses, including the 50mm f/2, 16mm f/1.4, 35mm f/2 and 90mm f/2, so in theory, my incredibly scientific ‘running water’ test is possible with all these lenses too (although you’ll need to be using one of Fuji’s weather-resistant camera bodies like the X-T4.)Take complete creative control of your images with PIXMA and imagePROGRAF PRO professional photo printers. Sharpness isn’t everything after all, especially in portraiture, where the 35mm f/1,4 is still very popular. Some APS-C lenses with a wide zoom range, like the Tokina 11-20mm f/2.8 which will cover a full-frame sensor at 16mm. That way, you can get your hands on a decent lens for great prices.
