former1 Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Hi everybody :D , Well I've managed to save up around 250euro, to put towards a camera lens. Now I have the standard kit lens (18-55mm), now I'm wanting a good quality portrait lens (hopefully within the modest budget :blush: ) that would be a great lens for portrait shots and possibly also an out door all purpose/ish shot. Thing is for potrait shots and project ideas I have I'd need a model and chances I'm able to get one whenever I have an idea are very slim, as most of my friends are camera shy :p So I'd sort of like it to have two general purposes. So if anybody has any suggestions, it would be much appreciated :) Thanks! Ian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pink Floyd Veteran Posted December 2, 2005 Veteran Share Posted December 2, 2005 I know for Nikon, there is the 50mm f/1.8 from Nikkor that is around 140usd$ Pro lens at low budget! with the nikon 1.5 factor, it makes an awsome 75mm lesn perfect for shooting portrait there must be an equivalent for canon.

Monkeh Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 ^Canon's 50mm f1.4 and 50mm f1.8 ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pink Floyd Veteran Posted December 4, 2005 Veteran Share Posted December 4, 2005 exactly. But canon factor is 1.6 compared to nikon's 1.5 so a 50 mm makes a 80mm for canon and 75mm for nikon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
