| May 4, 2011 at 16:55 | comment | added | coneslayer | That's a fine portrait lens, but you're going to have to be even further away from your subject, so you'll have to decide if that's a problem for you or not. (BTW, since your friend has the 50/1.8, maybe you can borrow it to try on your camera? You can assess the depth-of-field, the perspective and working distance, etc.) | |
