ANGLES OF VIEW
As we can see in the figure above, changing the angle of view
changes both the portion of reality we can see and the
proportion of the subject.
The wide-angle lens allows us to embrace more space but
moves subjects away, while the telephoto lens frames a smaller
portion of space but brings objects closer.
The 50 millimetre is also called NORMAL (or standard) because
it maintains almost unchanged the proportion of the image seen
by the naked eye.
