[QUOTE="manlyman, post: 371690, member: 33714"] Thank you so much WayneF for your detailed answer. I got a bit lost since I'm not familiar with inches but your sample shot llustrates very nicely that it won't work the way I imagined it with these lenses. when you write [COLOR=#333333] [/COLOR]do you think I'm better of with a zoom lens? I have around 3,5m (so around 11 feet) to move back from my subject while the bookshelf is around 1m (3 feet) behind my subject. So with 11 feet available distance I guess I should start with a 70mm? P.S.: Maybe to ealry to bring this up since I'm not sure what lenses to get but I'm trying to stay within my budget. A quick search put up lenses like the Sigma 70-300mm F4,0-5,6 DG Makro (around 100€) but I'm not sure if zoom lenses will deliver good results for this.
