hi,
yup, my apologies for the photoshop point, its been ammended.
as for your example, you might stand there and zoom to take the shot, but i would walk around the subject to fit it to the FOV of my prime lens. thats the difference. it forces me to explore many different perspectives.
thats not to say u cant do the same with a zoom, but for new shooters, theres always the tendency to just stand there and zoom in/out. so i feel primes will train u them to use a zoom. and thats in fact, what it helped me do.
regards,
benjamin
No need to apologize. I am just sharing my vewipoints about PP. With any tool, it can be abused and overdone. But that doesn't mean using it is a sign of lack of skills.
