[QUOTE="sam49, post: 341560, member: 12765"] I originally asked for advice on a new lens for portrate photograph. It seems to popular opinion is the 85mm is the better lens for this type of photography. But this is just and idea I had and the 85mm is a bit pricy if I don't like this kind of photograph. Well I have managed to get a 50mm f1.8 lens to try and take some photos it It looks like it might work if I try and photo more of of the subject and not just a portrate. I would use my 18 to 105 f3.5 but with a maximum apature of 3.5 is that fast enough the get a narrow depth of field. Any more advice would be nice.. [/QUOTE]
