[quote=GAFFER,409498]In my days as a photographer I used a 6x6cm medium format camera. A larger negative gives better results for clients requiring BIG prints. I used 3 lenses, 65mm Wideangle, 80mm standard, and 105mm short telephoto. The equivalent on a 35mm camera would be approximately 28mm, 50mm and 80mm. On a modern DSLR, the kit lens supplied with the camera, which is usually around 18-55 zoom, would virtually cover the range of those 3 lenses. Using a slightly longer than standard lens is more flattering for portraiture and helps decrease the depth of field (throws the background out of focus). For portraiture, if you get too close with a standard or wideangle lens it can magnify or distort anything close to the lens...usually the nose. Ladies tend not to like their noses being made bigger. For close portrait shots it might be wise to use manual focus and focus on the eyes. For photos which are pleasing to the eye rememnber to use the "rule of the thirds".[/quote]
