[QUOTE="Stoshowicz, post: 541754, member: 31397"] Cambridge in color calls the segment [B][COLOR=#006400]telephoto perspective[/COLOR][/B][COLOR=#800000].[/COLOR].. there would be no such thing! as [U]telephoto perspective[/U] if they were being faithful to[I] your[/I] esoteric use of the word perspective. Since Your position is precisely that there [B]is no "telephoto perspective" , [/B]since perspective by you,.. and some others,, is defined by distance alone ,regardless of lens angle. I dont think that giving a fly a big looking nose is going to hurt their feelings , and since the depth of field is almost nonexistant there is little comparing of near and far object sizes... but yes distance will change the background, as I said , we [U]already[/U] agree on the physics. Repeatedly for your comparison , you want to crop away portions of the image , in order to negate the differences due to focal length -angle of view. To negate differences , you have to admit that there ARE differences. The difference in perspective which you are negating is the nearness of the subject to the camera. When you look at a photo, dont you get an impression of distance ? or does the fly always look tiny whether you see it magnified or not..,, Im thinking it looks a lot closer and bigger when its filling more of the screen. The original GIF plays with that sense of nearness, the guys face always appears the same distance from the camera. [/QUOTE]
