Hi,
Well my kit has increased now but I am missing a lens for full length portrait from around 2-3 meters from the subject.
I have;
EOS 350d
Kit lens (USM)
28mm-135mm Canon USM
50mm 1.4 Canon USM (Finally found a shop with one in stock - York Cameras by the British Museum)
85mm 1.8 Canon USM on order.
On getting home I found that the 50mm will only allow me to capture the waist up of the model in the space I have available (converted room as a studio, room is not small by London standards).
Can anyone recommend a prime lens for full length protraits. Lighting is either to be studio flash or subdued lighting (candle, table lamp etc) for being fairly fast would be good.
Oh and budget..... well not L glass thats for sure. Under £400 would be a good mark.
Cheers
