leica1215 Posted May 19, 2015 Share #1 Â Posted May 19, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) I have been looking at many pictures some are taken by 50 some are from 35mm. I cant really tell which lens has been used, can you guys tell which lens by looking at pictures? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaapv Posted May 19, 2015 Share #2 Â Posted May 19, 2015 No - though I often can tell which photographer... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lct Posted May 19, 2015 Share #4 Â Posted May 19, 2015 By looking at my own pics yes certainly. On some others' closeups yes also. If they show too big noses it's a wide, as simple as that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
freitz Posted May 20, 2015 Share #5 Â Posted May 20, 2015 Even though they are similar in focal length and one can replicate the other. I traditionally use my 35 to capture subjects in their environment and use the 50 more for isolation. So mine would be easy to pick out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinnfell Posted May 20, 2015 Share #6 Â Posted May 20, 2015 Â I cant really tell which lens has been used, Â To me that is the whole point of using the 35/50 combination. These lenses do slightly different things, yet the finished pictures CAN be indistinguishable. That is great news if you are trying to build a series of images which need a uniform look, or in other words - if you don't want the "lens in the picture" as we say. Â 35 and 50 is on either end of the true normal of 43mm (or so) meaning that the former is a small wide angle and the latter is a small tele. The real advantage is the working distance they afford the photographer and the control over depth of field (35 for so-called hyperfocal shooting, 50 for so-called bokeh shots).
