Hi,
I'm new to this forum. Can someone explain to me about fixed focal length lenses please. I've seen wildlife and motorsport photographers using them. Surely though with fixed focal lengths you zoom with your feet so why are they used ?
If you're on a corner of a race track or trying to track the action surely if they aren't in the correct place on that lap they are either going to be too big or too small in the frame ? Similarly with wildlife photography if you're hiding waiting for an animal you can't always tell where it's going to go so you need to be able to zoom in and out.
I can't afford one of these lenses so haven't asked any shops to demonstrate one and was hoping someone could explain to me. Thanks
