A prime lens refers to a lens of single focal length ie a 50mm lens or 100mm lens which doesn’t zoom. Macro lenses such as a 50mm Macro or 100mm Macro are both prime lenses.

what about prime lenses

By: Rae Merrill

your lens is only 5.6 at the long end, about 65mm (35mm equivalent). so you wont get much shallow focus effect. you need to invest in one of the longer zooms for that camera. or a prime lens of 85mm (35mm equivalent) or above. i find 135mm is great for defocus effects.

In reply to ravi. Anything above 85mm and an aperture of f-3.5 or wider should give you shallow DOF.

What is the lens to be used for very shallow depth of field? I have a 14 -42 mm on my lumix g2 and not able to blur out background images? What lenses should I be using?

Aside from lenses, there are tons of filter, extension tubes, and other lens accessories.
All come in handy depending on what you are going for. You can get away with all kinds of accessories that are almost as good as an expensive macro lens.

did you know about right angle spy lens

You can’t beat a standard lens. I like to reverse mine with a reversing ring for macro shots. Produces very sharp results. I also like to do portraits wide open at 1.7 for shallow depth of field and soft resolution. I guess we all have our preferences and I do have some nice zooms as well.

Thanks for heads up. I’m not a professional photographer, I’m still working on my photos to get the best output. Now I know what type of lens to use based on my subject. I will surely recommend this to other photographers for added information.
