Lens Focal Length

When you enter a specific "mm" value into "Nano Banana Pro", it reproduces the lens’s unique sense of space (distortion) and background compression effect.

Wide Angle: 10mm ~ 35mm

The field of view is wide, and perspective is exaggerated. Objects that are close look larger, and objects that are far look smaller.

Ultra-wide angle, makes spaces look extremely large like in real estate photos, distortion occurs with bending at the edges
Wide angle, the standard for landscape photography, gives a refreshing and dynamic feeling, makes arms and legs look longer when used for portraits
Semi-wide angle, the most commonly used focal length in movies and street photography, moderately wide while harmonizing subject and background
Standard lens, "Nifty Fifty", almost no distortion and the most honest and realistic depiction
Fisheye lens / 8mm, the world is rounded and distorted like a fish’s eye, 90s hip-hop music video vibe
GoPro, the very wide and bulging-at-the-center wide-angle look unique to action cams

Telephoto: 85mm ~ 200mm+

Used to pull in distant subjects. The background appears very close to the subject (background compression), and out-of-focus blur (bokeh) is very pronounced.

Short telephoto, the classic "girlfriend lens / portrait lens", minimal facial distortion so people look their best
Telephoto, even full-body portraits have a nicely blurred background
Long telephoto, feels like seeing a distant lion right in front of you, background compression effect is maximized
Telephoto, when you want the feeling of shooting from far away without specifying an exact focal length
Super telephoto, 400mm and above, suitable for moon shots or photographing athletes in a sports stadium
