Probably less helpful but shows the difference in background, of the same subject, with different lenses.

Also f-stop on the depth of field. Larger f-stop more stuff in focus.

It would have been interesting with this one if they had also listed the distance of the object from the camera. To keep the object the same size in the image at all those different focal lengths, they had to take the shot from really far away at the long focal length, and move in real close at the short focal length.
