Description: The focal length is the distance between your camera’s sensor and the optical center of the camera lens. If you have a longer focal length, the overall perspective will be reduced, the subject will be closer, and areas won’t be as clear. The opposite is true for a shorter focal length. It will give a wider perspective and overall be more focused. We hope you enjoy! To learn more, check out our written lesson here: edu.gcfglobal.org/en/digitalphotography
