Effect of Very long Lenses on Portraits

longLens.gif

A 300mm lens vs an orthographic lens.

An orthographic lens is longer than a 1200 mm lens. It's longer than a 12,000,000 mm lens. It is infinitely long.

A long lens above 400 mm can only have so much effect on the perspective of an object (assuming moving the camera to achieve reasonably similar framing from lens to lens)
