Originally posted by Sandy Hancock The Pentax FA Limited 77mm f1.8 is my go-to portrait lens: pin sharp at f2.0, perfect colours and beautiful bokeh.
I agree 100% on the qualities of the lens although for me it always felt kind of neither here nor there lens (not long enough yet too long)

But think this is utter bull...
If there is a camera pointing at knowing subject I doubt they mind what size the lens is. They will have picture taken and they know it, with big or small lens, they'll feel about it the same way
