What is a prime lens?

Today I'm asking what is a prime lens? These are the advantages and disadvantages of using a prime lens which is a lens with a fixed focal length.

This has advantages and disadvantages in photography when taking a photograph. I sometimes shoot with zooms, however, a lot of the time I will shoot with prime lenses, especially when the subject is static, I take photos with two camera bodies or if I need my camera to excel in low light conditions!

I wholeheartedly agree with zooming with your legs. Using a prime encourages you to compose the shot rather than just zooming in/out. I like to think my photography improved when I switched to primes.
Excellent video as usual Mike - thanks for uploading

I wish my Sony 90mm f 2.8 was lighter Mike! It's a nice and very sharp macro lens, though!

Hello Mike :)
I have the Sony a7. Would you think is worth selling the prime 28mm F2 and buy the tamron 28 - 75 F2.8 ?
