Telephoto lens

Telephoto lens is identified as a specialized camera lens that acts much the same way as a telescope does for the naked eye.

The telephoto lens magnifies the objects being photographed and allows the camera to close-in on subjects that are far away. The sacrifice is perspective and loss of texture a image become flat.
