Thanks photo fan - I see you own several lenses, do ever use the 16-55 to take portraits at 55mm f2.8?

X shooter, I don't do a lot of portraits but I have done some with it and it's a great lens for that as well. If you are primarily a portrait shooter and want very shallow depth of field, the 56 is a nice lens. I had that lens and traded even for the 16-55 and it is much more useful to me. It focuses faster and the image quality is also excellent. Sorry I don't have anything handy to post in the portrait arena.
