[QUOTE="fotojack, post: 8059, member: 16"] Certain questions come to mind: how big is the family? Will it be a "wide" shot for a big family? Are there just a few people involved in the family shot? Indoors or outdoors? Will the shot be made into prints for all family members? As Curt has suggested, the 50mm f1.8 is the ideal lens for family portraits. Then there's the 85mm lens, some wide angle lenses.even a 35mm f1.8 lens is good for family portraits. It all depends on certain factors. Could you give us more info on the dynamics of your family picture? What lenses do you have on hand? Are you able to borrow a lens from a friend? See where I'm coming from here? :) [/QUOTE]
