And at a minimum, no less than 50mm. If you are far enough back taking a full body photo, then 35mm might be okay. But what will happen if you get close to your subject to take a head and shoulders image is something called perspective distortion. Things that are closer to the camera (such as noses) may appear elongated and abnormal.But give it a try because that's really the only way you are going to learn. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" /></blockquote>
