Telephoto Lens

Definition

A telephoto lens is a type of camera lens designed to capture distant subjects with a narrow field of view, allowing for magnified images. It typically has a long focal length, which makes it ideal for wildlife photography, sports events, and situations where the photographer cannot get close to the subject. Telephoto lenses can also compress the perspective of scenes, making them useful for portrait photography.

Synonyms

• Long-focus lens
• Zoom lens (when variable)
• Super telephoto lens (for extremely long focal lengths)
