A Mid shot is the most common camera shot and regularly used shot. It will normally contain a figure from the waist up and is usually used in dialogue scenes or to show some action whilst still keeping the main detail of the figure in focus. It should be clear that one person is the focus yet still showing there surroundings.
The Mid long shot is very similar however the figure is shown from the knee upward.
In a Long shot the figure is show in 'life size' from head to toe and whilst the main focus is on a particular character (or more), background detail is more clear, like the picture from The Pirates of the Caribbean shows the main character at the front yet the other characters are still clear in the background.
