[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 208893, member: 3903"] For head and shoulders and 3/4 and full body shots, then it depends on the intent. I also used to do model composites for agencies and was at the time shooting hasselblad and I'd be using flash around f11-16 to show all of the person with little imperfections not corrected. But for portraits, in the usual sense, we'd have someone retouch the negatives (that's why we were shooting larger format) to hide little skin imperfections. This is also why less depth of field was wanted. [/QUOTE]
