New Paparazzi portraits?
;-)

I guess I was remembering my old 105mm-f/4-ish when I was taking pictures with a film SLR.

But some say a fast 135 is fine for portraits, too - e.g. http://forums.dprevi...rum-post-40086787

Cheers,

New Shhh! Those are not allowed anymore around Blighty ;-)
But the post is about a full frame Canon 5d. If I parsed this thread correctly, Peter's is a 35mm lens but his camera has a smaller sensor, making the 135 look like a 216. Field of view would definitely be affected.
