john, i don't see why you are so abrasive. narcissism? perhaps? i've noticed this in other posts you've made. let the people up off their knees bowing. they're probably tired.

Roy, lay off. You've been chasing JFD around the forums for the past few of his posts. At least he is honest when he is being antagonistic.

Seriously, protrait shots can be taken with any primes. Really a personal preference anyway.

I had seen Darren M doing his street candids photography using just Zenitar Fish Eye or Fa 31 ltd. He does it well and I worship him for that.

I used to believe in the focal length of 135mm for protrait. Now I am not too sure ...

If the images work, it works regardless what lens is used

beth,
i believe this was the first time i've posted offensively.. if he shuns forums then why post at all? hinman is just trying to find some confidence in himself.

is there a relationship between the 2 davis's? Bdavis and JFdavis58 ??
why belittle someone because they are new?? why not save the animosity for someone that deserves it. from what i've read of JF's replies gives me the opinion that he was probably a great school yard bully... just MHO..
