Portrait Photography
Posted on Tuesday, May 4, 2010 in Photography
What canon lenses are great for indoor/outdoor glamour and portrait photography?
I have a Canon Rebel XTI and would love to go into these areas of photography. Thanks!
For indoor shots, make sure your lens has a low aperture. By low i mean lower than f/3 (I know f/3 is not a normal aperture setting but I'm just saying go lower than f/3)
For outdoor, make sure it's not a wide-angle lens. A standard or medium telephoto lens would work for outdoor the best. This woud mean around 50-100mm.
