[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 341390, member: 13090"] *notsureifserious.jpg* Well I do have some basic idea what I'm talking about, yes; but I'm certainly no expert and if I'm incorrect in my assessment I hope someone will correct me. I'm not really sure where the "bazooka" thing is coming from. Most of the pro's on staff here at the college use a 70-200mm zoom (or equivalent) lens for portraiture. The Nikon version fits comfortably in one hand and from ten feet away looks pretty small, at least to me. The Nikon 85mm f/1.8G, another popular choice, is only a fraction of an inch longer/wider than the 50mm f/1.8G lens is and suffers none of the distortion. [COLOR=#ffffff]....[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
