The BEST Lenses for Portraits

F/M/K: 35mm, 50mm, 85mm?

85 mm. PERIOD. It’s a no-brainer.

I learned to use only my 55mm and 135mm... I'm now looking to get something like an 85 or 100/105 to see how I do with those.

What 24 - 70 mm would be best for canon? Such a helpful video!

Plane noise. Mmm delicious

The model is so beautiful too

50 & 85mm is my go to lens for portraits

The most is the 50mm

What camera and lens are you guys using to film this video!? 🤩

Very helpful. Thank you.

I love my 35 and my 90 (macro), but it depends what look i want to get.

24mm / 135mm

First Off great Video!

Im an Amateur but really enjoy taking photos. I got the a6000 and mainly use the Canon 50mm f1.8 with an Adapter on my camera. That gives me 75mm right? Is that an ok set up or should I get an other lense for Portrait without an adapter?

Thx in advance 👍

Personally, my face looks most pleasant at 200 mm, and 24 - 28 mm disfigures a human face.

I'm a fan of subject isolation in portraits hence leaning more towards the longer lenses, 85, 100 and 135

Except 50mm. All the rest looks great. 😁😁

Great job for the lenses.
Many thanks

24-70, 70-200 for run and gun weddings

The last one 70-200

That woman is gorgeous!

24-70 mm

I thought a 50mm is closer to your eye which is why they call it normal

Is Canon still making cameras?
That's... Cute... Or extremely large...
I'm confused.

What camera lens was used for this whole video??

The 100macro looked nice

35

❤

My 135/1.8 Gmaster 👍🏽👍🏽
Great bokeh and compression and not as big and heavy as a 70-200

Can I just say that this is one of the few videos that show the characteristics of each prime lens rather than technical stuff that you can look for online if you do the research. Thanks

As usual, good model and excellent photos, congratulations. As for any lens, any one fits in the right hands, the 24mm is not intended for more conventional portraits.

Static and boring 135mm? Ha. It's the photographer and not the equipment.

Nice video = ) I would have liked to know more of the model's opinion. What does it feel being on the other side? What's the difference from working on one lens or the other.

Nice music and models in this video! I use Nikon 50mm 1,8 D and 55mm 2.8 macro lenses for my portraits along with a 24-70mm zoom!

What happens if I buy a lens 18-70mm does it still have the same focus as a 70mm individual lens?

70-200 the boomer lense

Thank you.

The distortion at 28mm in close on the model's face actually widens it lending to a more innocent expression. The focal lengths have their strengths and weaknesses. I like them all.

When I first picked up my canon 7d I got a sigma 35mm and fell in love with it since it was the only one I had. I have the R5 with the 35mm 1.8 RF and it’s great but I did just pick up the 50mm 1.2 RF so I’m excited to do some portraits with it.

it would of been much more valuable if, you would of kept the same distance with every lens
like the way you guys did it , it can not really compare

35m then 24-70 are nice shots

wow I could watch you guys shoot all day! This was an excellent video!

The 50mm felt most intimate to me

I honestly love portraits with wide-angle lenses, love the distortion. Unpopular opinion, I know.

Love the video, you rich people you have one of each lol. How do you even start buying all these lenses. Big investment.

I love the photo quality of the 50mm lens.

you look like steve aioki

35mm and 85mm

The 85mm which on crop sensor camera is a Nifty Fifty! Hooray

70-200mm for me
