What cameras are you using in portrait studio?

[andrewh]

Hello All:

This is for those working in professional studio portraiture?

What camera(s) system(s) are you currently using? I'm interested in knowing what others are working with in the studio, today? DSLR, Medium format, large format? Models and lenses?

Thanks,

Andrew

If i am correct, some people rave about the Fuji S5pro for portrait work.
I cant really comment too much as A) I'm a Canon user and B) i dont really do portrait work

Is this for a School / College / University project?

The S5 Pro is a good choice for many people simply because it produces good image quality with a good dynamic range and because studio photography doesn't need complicated, expensive camera with weatherproofing, gimmics and all the other features needed, for example, for sports or news photography.

But studio photography is about lighting, not cameras, that's where the thoughts and the money needs to go.

I use my D2Xs as my studio camera - while weatherproofing my not be its most useful feature, strength of build quality certain is then the wee mites get hold of it
