Not every picture is the same and each picture is made different by the type of picture it is, that is full length, portrait and so on. To be able to take good portrait pictures there is a certain type of lens that you have to use to get the image right. In the paragraphs that follow I will talk about some points to consider when shooting a portrait picture.
The type of lens that you choose will also depend on the environment at that particular time that is light conditions, wind etc. You need think about the focal length. The focal length is affected by the size of the film you are using. From personal observation I have noticed that a portrait with 35mm film camera is best taken with a 105m lens and an 80mm requires a 160mm lens. You can see then how the size of the film has an effect on the lens that you choose and the eventual picture that you take.
if you ever found that these adjustments in forcal len are complicated, you can always consult with the professional. sometimes having a practical experience provide a better explanation than theory.
The view of a picture is dependant on how near you are to the subject and not the size of the lens. basically the size of the lens will not affect the view it will stay the same. What will be different is the number of things that will appear in each image that is the scope. Of course assuming everything else remains constant and only the focal length changes.
As I mentioned previously the one way you can grasp this concept of focal length and size of lens is if you experiment with taking various pictures and see the effect.You will be able to find some great DSLR cameras and lenses at any one of these:
