Originally posted by yozza Do i stick with a prime lense and which, or do i got the zoom route which gives me more flexibility in shots i can take and which one?
There may not just be one lens a prime or a zoom for a portrait lens, with the different rendering styles that lenses can give maybe it is a case of trying out several different lenses for different types of portraits. I used the f2.8 50 D-FA for shots of golf clothes, man was it sharp, really showed the clothes in detail, and enough of the golf course back ground recognisable. Yet other styles of portrait might benefit from a shallower depth of field say f1.4/f2 Perhaps the FA 35mm f2 is a choice as well, there are so many to choose from, give them a try I say, see what suits you and your clients
Edit: meant to mention the 77 and 31mm lens
