Understanding Portrait Lenses Part 2: Exploring Photography with Mark Wallace




https://www.adorama.com

In the second installment of this 2-part tutorial, Mark Wallace demonstrates the differences between wide angle and telephoto lenses for portrait photography. This video debunks the myth that wide angle lenses distort faces, shows why you should use longer zoom lenses in the studio, even a small studio. Mark also walks through the process of using a 35mm lens for environmental portraits.

  1. OK Mark. Profit batt. powered strobes or Broncolor? I watch Adorama and B&H vids all the time. I also watch a certain British Photog that has more Broncolor gear than their warehouse does. ๐Ÿ˜‰ LOL Is One brand easier to get serviced in the USA than another?

  2. Really enjoy your videos Mark and think you're one of the top educators on YouTube but the Adorama marketing folks need to put enthusiast and pro-sumer gear in your hands for these types of videos on occasion. Those product links above point to over $17,000 worth of gear. Teach us newbies with more reasonably priced gear and I'm sure the ROIs on these videos sky rocket. All of this assumes, of course, that Profoto/Leica/Canon aren't paying product placement fees!!
