I look around the gallery and see these awsome camera positionings to get a good close up portrait type shot of the head or pretty much 3 quarters of their body. My question is what camera settings do people use to achieve these im not very adapt at using camera dials, I can move the perspective to make it a bit bigger and drag z tran to move it in and y to move it up and down and what not, Perhaps to achieve these camera shots do  I need to play with other dials.

My shots tend to render pretty good but they just dont pop out at ya like some of the examples I included below. Which is the effect I'm trying to achieve. So if anyone can post some camera settings for me play with and learn from please do.

**Examples of What Im trying to achieve (not my work)
