[close ]

Here is a picture of the Oracle building, across the road, from here. Taken close to the building. Note the converging yellow lines that show perspective.

[Dist ]

Here the camera has moved back and the yellow lines are nearly parallel.

The next 4 pictures have been taken from the same spot! Using 4 different lens settings.

  1. 200mm Tele photo lens
  2. 125mm lens
  3. 80mm lens
  4. 35mm wide angle lens
Note that all the images are the same in perspective. The small thumbnail image has been cut from number 17 but is the same as number 14.

The message that you should take from this page is Distance gives pespective Zoom only changes the magnification.
