I have a Nikon D3200 with the 18-55 kit lens. I've been doing okay taking photos for selling my chandeliers and other antique related items online. But I feel it's time to upgrade my lens. Most times I'm in my basement 'studio' for shoots. I use soft boxes good backdrops, but the kit lens is not really up to the task with big items like crystal chandeliers, etc.
What would be a good lens choice for product photography, keeping in mind that some items I shoot are multi-arm chandeliers and furniture, and you can see the back parts the same as the front. You can see some of my online items here, and it will give you a good idea of what I'm up against. I also clip the backgrounds from most items I sell, so clarity/focus are important.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
