Lens needed for product photography

SmilinBob · 10-04-2011, 12:02 PM

Hello:

Which lenses would you recommend in the following scenario? I'll obtain a Pentax K-r DSLR body for product photography on a copy stand. Our subjects will be dolls approximately six inches tall.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Be well,

Bob

Hello,

The Pentax SMCP-DA 35mm f/2.8 Macro Limited Lens is designed to be extremely compact and lightweight, compared to conventional macro lenses. Designed specifically for digital SLR cameras, this lens provides one-to-one magnification in a normal focal length. It provides a focal view equivalent to 52.5mm in 35mm format.
