Re: Portrait lens for Grandchildren and picky parents

To answer your questions, my plan is to do several environmental pictures of my 17 year old grandson. The vast majority of them will be taken outdoors and will be posed. If I use a flash at all, it will be a fill flash.

I anticipate that the pictures will be in a wooded area, by water, by his car, by his school/church. There may be one or two inside a building.

I also think that the majority of pictures will be several 5X7s with one or two being either 8X10 or a bit larger.

Hope that helps-
