Power of 40mm Lens

The focal length of 40 mm is very interesting. It has the characteristic that it has no characteristics. If it is 35 mm, it will be a wide-angle lens. 50 mm is a medium telephoto lens in my sense.

The EL Nikkor 40mm F4N lens may have been developed as a shooting lens from the beginning. Anyway, when I actually take a picture, the result of the picture is wonderful.
