In a studio situation where I will be shooting at or near F8, saying that space is not an issue, which lens in my signature would you use for portraits that are head/shoulder shots or above the waste shots?

Sep 10, 2011 08:01 | #4 Coming from 35mm cameras, I'd shoot above the waist shots with the 24-70 between 50 and 70mm...but my preference has to do with how close I used to shoot with 85 and 105mm lenses on the 35mm bod... My Canon kit 450D/s90; Canon lenses 18-55 IS, 70-210/3.5-4.5....Nikon kit: D610; 28-105/3.5-4.5, 75-300/4.5-5.6 AF, 50/1.8D Nikkors, Tamron 80-210; MF Nikkors: 50/2K, 50/1.4 AI-S, 50/1.8 SeriesE, 60/2.8 Micro Nikkor (AF locked), 85mm/1.8K-AI, 105/2.5 AIS/P.C, 135/2.8K/Q.C, 180/2.8 ED, 200/4Q/AIS, 300/4.5H-AI, ++ Tamron 70-210/3.8-4, Vivitar/Kiron 28/2, ser.1 70-210/3.5, ser.1 28-90; Vivitar/Komine and Samyang 28/2.8; 35mm Nikon F/FM/FE2, Rebel 2K...HTC RE UWA camera
