[QUOTE="J-see, post: 541768, member: 31330"] It's not just the distortion that is different, there's a DOF difference which enables you to shoot long lenses at an aperture impossible for short lenses to reproduce. There's also a completely different background compression. When I do street with the big Tam, I can't (always) reproduce that with my short primes. If you consider perspective as depending upon a relation between the subject and its background, then a wide-angle can never reproduce a telephoto shot and vice versa. [/QUOTE]
