How Lens Focal Length Affects Your Photography & Filmmaking

Did you know that the type of lens you choose affects the story you want to tell? There's ultra-wide, wide-angle, normal, telephoto, and super-telephoto. Focal length is not just "how close can you get", it is the emotional lifeblood of an image.
