Which portrait lens to go for...

[Paul_Westhead]

I have been hovering around a Canon 50mm lens for portait work, however I am a bit stuck at which apature...

So vote away or make alternative suggestions.

Thanks

85 or 135mm for the start

All depends on budget! But yea I'd go with the canon 85 1.8 for a portrait lens!

Hi,

Thanks for the replies, just one more thing I have a 50D which is an APS-C sensor so the effective length is 80mm I assume most people are talking about full size sensors?

Thanks again

Paul
