I just wanted to share with you all why I believe using an 85mm objective for portrait photography is an absolute game-changer.
First off, let me just say that the 85mm lens is like the holy grail of portrait photography. It creates such a beautiful, buttery bokeh that really makes your subject pop in the frame. Trust me, nothing screams professional portrait like that dreamy, out-of-focus background.
Not to mention, the 85mm focal length allows you to stay a comfortable distance from your subject while still capturing intimate close-up shots. This means you can really let your subject relax and be themselves without feeling like they're being invaded by your camera lens.
And let's not forget about the flattering compression effect that the 85mm lens provides. It helps to flatten facial features and create a more flattering look for your subject. Who doesn't want to look their best in a portrait, am I right?
