Re: Portrait lens advice

It's about the definition what a portrait is.

IMHO it's a headshot or a headshot+
But not a half or a full body.
I've done K+ portraits/headshot or a headshot+  and >>135mm on FF is the way to go.
70-200 f4 is a great lens at f8

For half or full bodies you can use any creative lens you like but they are not portraits.
