I unwisely mentioned, in a DPReview<\/a> comment thread,<\/strong> that I loved the Canon EF 135mm F\/2 lens for its wonderful \u201ccroppability.\u201d<\/p>\n

I meant that the photos I\u2019ve taken with the 135 continue to look wonderful when tightly cropped. When I\u2019ve shot dancers, for example, it has given me a workable equivalent of a 300mm F\/2 lens which, if such a lens existed, would likely cost upwards of $12,000 instead of the $700 I paid for a used 135.<\/p>\n

I said \u201cunwisely\u201d because the expected, in fact, happened. A person replied to my comment in scornful tones of high authority, admonishing me that no real<\/em> photographer would ever shoot with a view to cropping. They would \u2013 obviously \u2013 get it right first time, in the camera, so that no cropping would be required.<\/p>\n

I didn\u2019t reply, I just shrugged and walked on. Lots of people hang out in photography gear sites looking for opportunities to appear taller by cutting other people\u2019s heads off.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, photographers who make a living with their cameras commonly talk about the quality of cropped images taken with certain lenses. Not every image can be attractively composed in the 3:2 format of a full-frame digital camera. Details need to be emphasized, and distractions need to be removed.<\/p>\n

There’s a nerdy little photo game that I enjoy. While deciding which lenses to buy, I visit the Flickr photo galleries to view photos taken with those lenses. I\u2019ve bookmarked hundreds of\u00a0 images that I love. Along the way, I\u2019ve realized that perhaps 20% to 40% of the photos I admired could be improved by clicking the images in Flickr to enlarge them and reframing them accordingly. Of course, not all of the photos can be appropriately cropped by the Flickr enlarged view.<\/p>\n

An example is this photo by Jacopo Colombo<\/a> of a famous site in Iceland, Landmannalaugar. It\u2019s lovely as shot, but I believe it gains impact when enlarged, placing the tip of the highest peak in the far upper-left corner of the frame.<\/p>\n

It makes the figure of the woman holding the camera the focal point of the image, giving it a human interest and human scale. It strengthens the idea of the image by enlarging the flowers in the meadow to a point where they are visible. It emphasizes the contrast between nature\u2019s impersonality as represented by the mountains in the background, and the flowery meadow and human figure. Finally, it clarifies the image by revealing the wonderful sharpness of the Canon lens. In short, I think it tells a stronger story.<\/p>\n

The most croppable lenses I\u2019ve owned include the Canon 24-105 F\/4 L, Canon 135mm F\/2 L, and Fujinon 90mm F\/2. There are many others that I admire but cannot afford \u2014 a ridiculous example would be the Leica Noctilux-M 50mm f\/0.95 ASPH<\/a>, at $11,295.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019d like to play, here are 27 personal favorite photos on Flickr, all taken with the wonderful Canon EF 24-105 F\/4 L IS USM. PLEASE NOTE: I am NOT saying that ALL of these photos could benefit from cropping.<\/p>\n

Candidates for Cropping?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I selected photos that I felt it would not be completely ridiculous to consider cropping. If you just want to look at good 24-105 photos, I’ll post links to all 114 of my bookmarked photos below.<\/p>\n
