malakite - actually, any 35mm cam will do. IMO (sorry, student), wat matters is the selection of lens, and in ur case, film. and these are dependent on where u are shooting. eg - when i'm shooting in a studio with my EOS30, i found myself using my tokina 28-70mm/f2.8 lens most of the time. outdoors, my 70-200/f4L is on my cam all the time. however, if i was using my 10D, indoors will be 50mm and outdoors will either be 28-70 or 70-200.
some books recommend primes for both indoors and outdoors. for canon, the usual recommended primes are like the 85mm, 135mm or 200mm. some (for fashion spread) even suggest the use of 300mm. so, end of day, its really ur preference. there's no one 'THE' lens.

above all, the choice of lens is dependent on the photograper's vision of what he wants to achieve. it is a tool of the trade.
Well, for my full body shots, its still 80% 85mm and 20% 50mm, u may be able to guess which one by looking at the perspective. (model vs background) When I use 85mm, I usually walk very far and need to shout to the model so she can hear what I say.nightwolf75 said:yep! precisely. my own choice of lenses is dependent on how i usually frame my portraits. i usually prefer half, shoulder or head shots. thus, i prefer to zoom in tight. on the other hand, if, say, u looking for full body (which i haven't figure out how to do it decently :embrass: ), my lenses might give me a hard time unless i zoom with legs. like for astin. i notice his full body shots, which IMO are well framed, are all done using primes. (astin - izit still ur 50mm for outdoors?)

Well, I have a 180mm, shoot model once with it, not really use to it, got to stand almost 20 meters away and shout "eyes look here, right arm up, blah blah blah"reachme2003 said:nothing longer, austin.
