Confused by all the numbers, terms, and choices when it comes to lenses? This class breaks down the essential “lens lingo” every photographer should know—from wide-angle to telephoto and everything in between. You’ll learn how different focal lengths impact your images, what lens “speed” really means, and how aperture blades affect depth of field and bokeh. We’ll also cover key technical features, helping you better understand how your lens works so you can choose the right one for any shooting situation.

Perfect for beginners or anyone looking to build confidence and clarity when working with lenses.
