    50-150 might be a good choice for portrait if you don't need or can afford faster primes.

    With my 14-35mm f4L and a 50-150mm f2.8 would my travel kit for 90% of my needs.

    Nice series, 7DmkI. I especially like the last one.

    At first look, my feeling was the same. This lens would complement Sigma's 10-18mm and 18-50mm very nicely. But it seems to be too...

    Maybe a travel lens to combo with the 14-35 L. Maybe. Probably still would rather take 70-200 f4 and a fast 50mm prime. Actually this.

    I really like the eye contact in the first one. You've been spotted.

    I've wanted to see a Firecrest for a very long time. Just seen my very first one. It was there for just a few seconds and I had to shoot...

    I checked it out; some terribly nervous bokeh at f/1.2, the boy on the green slide for instance, looks like the RF 50/1.8 ! The planar...

    Lets get it right: optical correction is not stretching. The goal with optical correction is to try and ensure that as many individual...

    I fully agree, but the worst was the choice of 2025's best photo gear. Sony, Fuji, Nikon, OM, Sigma, Tamron. Canon??? Not one single...

    At least, it's 10mm closer to 35 f/1.2 :unsure:

    On the one hand, this isn't all that different from a 70-200 2.8 L. On the other hand, if the price point is very low, like the 45/1.2...

    50-150 would make this an interesting aps-c lens. You'll also avoid most of the corrections needed. An 80-240 equivalent is a very...

    It would be ideal lens for APSC sensor cameras as they only use the middle part of the image circle. I could pair it with my Sigma 17-40...

    I did. Not inspiring. But, if they had fun, good luck to them.
