Re: Focal lengths - Equivalents...grrrr
The thing about taking portraits is that you usually have a lot of control over your subject and environment such that you can move them relative to each other to get the desired effect. A camera with a larger sensor and a faster lens may allow greater subject separation but the effect is often over-used.

Re: Focal lengths - Equivalents...grrrr
Now I can see that your wife is in the shadows and so an exposure longer than cloudy day was necessary. The loss of detail is probably a result of cropping and noise reduction. As others have suggested, this scene really calls for a bit of fill flash. Even the little popup flash, probably turned down to minimum, can be useful for fill.
If you do not want to post process your shots, you might find the "digital teleconverter" feature useful, see http://lightdescription.blogspot.com...esolution.html .
