Dear Photographers,

I need your tech advice, please. I am shooting in a studio using the eye bird viewpoint. The distance between the camera and the subject is 120 cm.

Now, what focal lens, aperture and speed shutter do you recommend for a sharper image result ?

Many Thanks

Best wishes

Natural light or flash?

If using flash I'd use; 50-70, f8, 1/250 (or 1/200) and adjust strobes to suit.

If natural light it will be variable depending on the light.

BTW - welcome to the forum. :)

This seems to me to be a fixed setup for some reason, and it's difficult to give a useful answer without having a much better understanding of what you're shooting, but:
The focal length of the lens should be whatever is needed to fill the frame with the subject.
The lens aperture will depend on the depth of the subject, i.e. it will depend on the depth of field needed.
The shutter speed is almost irrelevant, as long as it isn't too short to sync with your flash, assuming of course that you're using flash.

The important question, which you haven't asked, is about light placement.
