Focal Length Explained! Why does it MATTER?
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Focal length is a very important concept in Photography and Videography. Focal length affects the distortion, perspective, compression and depth of field. In this 'Focal Length Explained! Why does it MATTER?' video, I cover all the basic things you need know about focal length.

My first video of 2020 uploaded in my new year resolution (4k) Edit1: I've said you get 'More' depth of field when you zoom in but I actually meant 'more blur' which is technically 'less' depth of field.

When u say increase of focal length decreases the Depth of Field, is it actually focal length or EFL

I'm trying to understand the results of pushing vanishing points to different extremes in drawing and I found this somewhat helpful. Understanding compression as a result of how close vanishing points are to one another will help me when setting up vanishing points to start and plan a piece.

I've been down a KZread hole researching cameras/lenses. This was the most helpful I've found in 2 hours- thank you so much!!!!
Hi Saurav, that was the best explanation i have seen in a very long time! You have a very good way about you which is excellent. Keep up the great videos and as it's November 15th 2020 today you're probably in the middle of Dihwalli, enjoy!
1:15 sensor with or without crop 1:50 small number of focal length = wider perspective ... 15mm = wider perspective than 200 mm... 2:30 compression ... 3:30 depth of field 4:15 zooming in vs moving closer physically to the subject ... 5:20 portrait ...
This video helped me in my physics 😂 I didnt know what is focal length in physics I actually came here searching' what is focal length' 😂

Thanks this really helps a lot. I am trying to get into microstock and learning this really helps, as well as the math at the beginning. It made me happy to hear that you are a landscape photographer and that you use a higher focal length because I currently only have one lens (prime, 35mm, but my camera is 2x crop factor, so 70mm). Thanks again.
Great job explaining! You've done a much better job than so many others. Subscribed and keep up the learning material. Thanks
dude! you're a gem! so glad i found this channel! love your delivery and knowledge of the subject!
Extremely informative and concise! Thanks a ton man!
One word: OUTSTANDING
This brief yet extremely informative and digestible video just earned You a subscriber. Awesome job!
Amazing video.., I just started exploring more and more about photography and videography...... This video of yours was really nice and useful
Thank you for explaining these concepts in clear, easy to understand language geared towards beginners.
Your videos have literally taught me everything I know about photography, and I have improved so much since I found your channel. Is there any way you could make a video on shooting dark subjects in dark locations? I have a black Labrador and I want photos in the forest and I cannot afford other light sources but ISO and the sun itself

@ You r absolutely right that's why I suggested alternate source of light. Ideally no matter what you do photography needs lighting.. I'm a professional photographer. If lighting isn't there camera will require higher ISO, I'm afraid no other option is there. Or you speedlight with your camera, the response I have seen is amazing if you know how to go bounce flashlight the output will be like you have not used Flashlight at all.
Thank you Saurav for your valuable lessons/tips.
Omg! Thank you so much for this video! Focal length makes so much more sense now💗
Thanks for the video. You might want to mention, as well, what compression can do to human facial features; so the need for checking on that re distance from your subject when using various focal length lenses for portraits so you don't distort people's faces (however subtle, or not, that distortion can be).
Your videos are always so good. Even if I know the topic already, the revision is great. Thanks. I subscribed.
This was extremely helpful. I was looking for something just like this.
Thank you! One of the best videos on the subject I’ve seen. Can’t wait to watch more!
This video had so many succinct examples. I'm appreciative for having found it. Thank you!

I’ll definitely have to watch this vid a few times throughout my learning but this vid was super helpful.
I loved how this guy explains things! I love it!
Great video very concise. Thank you for sharing. I wish more channels were succinct like this instead of wasting my time with 90 second long intros
This explaination was all I needed. Good work man!!
Awesome video, I learnt so much and really appreciate the detail you went to!
Very well done video. You explain things clearly with no useless stuff. Keep making videos this way. I don't like the ones with long introductions and full of foolish jargon. Thank you for the information. I knew what focal length was but you gave me a new perspective. I usually think of depth if field as a function of aperture only.
Wow! I'm not even a photographer but I watched the whole video. This was great! Well done.
I use 50mm on APSC and it has a 75mm equivalent and I use it literally for almost shots, portrait, street, and I love it!

Beautifully explained!! Your videos are full on knowledge and easily understood!! They are technical too
You have some great videos with lots of basic information. I'd like to see you to a on the scene photo shoot and walk through some of your shots. As a fellow photographer when I do a walk through it makes it easy to understand the process to achieve the finished images. Happy new years and happy shooting !!!
You should be getting paid to teach! Even with your accent (I’m in the US) you made this as clear and simplified as you possibly could in 6 minutes! Great work!

Thank you for making this video! As a beginner it was really helpful.
Thanks man. Finally, I got my answer on choosing a lens for portrait.
Now this is what we call a perfect explanation. I've always struggled with focal length and learned about it but this made it perfectly clear.
*FINALLY someone who explains it in English that's simple to understand. Now I'll know what to look for the next time I get a Lens.*

Hi! Dear nice video. Just want to modify one thing that when we use 200 mm we won’t get more depth of field but that is called shallow depth of field.yeah thats true that we’ll get more blurr but that is called shallow depth of field.More or Deep depth of field is when we use a wider lens or increase the f-Stop.
Thank you so much!!! This was an AMAZING video!!! It explained the topic VERY WELL!!! :)
This was very comprehensive, thank you.
