Wide-angle lenses are best for capturing the beauty of a vast landscape. This is because your eyes are only capable of taking in around 120 degrees of a scene at once, but a wide-angle lens can take in much more. Also, when shooting grand interiors – there’s no need to stand up against a wall to get more in the frame, as the lens will do it for you.

Sometimes you can’t get close enough for the perfect shot. Wildlife adventures, and distant cityscapes could be captured in sharp detail with the right telephoto lens, using powerful zoom performance so you can get closer to your subject without having to move.

A beautiful portrait photo should capture the personality and emotions of the person you’re shooting. Human beings are the easiest subject to come across, and creating a soft background blur with emphasis on their expression, style or skin tone instantly brings the image to life.

Shoot the world around you in intricate detail with macro photography. A macro lens lets you produce close-up images of much smaller subjects at life-size scale. From nature and wildlife to food or jewellery, capture the shine and textures of the natural landscape in sharp focus with a beautiful background blur to really emphasise the detail.
