Generation

Focal length determines how much a lens magnifies a scene—longer focal lengths create more magnification and narrower views, while shorter focal lengths capture wider perspectives. Field of view (FOV) describes the angular extent of the scene captured by the lens, which is inversely related to focal length. Together, these properties determine whether you'll capture a sweeping landscape (short focal length/wide FOV) or zoom in on distant subjects (long focal length/narrow FOV).
