We’re in sunny Norfolk to see if “zooming with your feet” really beats a zoom lens.

You’ve probably heard that moving closer or further from your subject can change the perspective in your images but what really happens when you do that? In this video, we put it to the test. We’re using a range of lenses from ultra-wide primes to standard and telephoto zooms. Get ready to see how perspective, compression, and framing can dramatically transform your photos, just by moving your feet!
