Hello everyone, long time follower first time poster . I am having a bit of trouble in making a decision on which lens to buy with my 5d2 purchase. Keep in mind I want to keep prices under 3k.
For a while I have been doing quite a bit of headshot photography with my 85mm 1.8(Love it) on my APS-C. As of late the demand for family photos have gone way up for me. 85mm is way to tight(especially on crop) for groups. I will definitely be keeping my 85 for individuals and I know my focal length will widen a little(I am assuming not enough for more than 2 subjects) but I am wondering if I should pick up the 50 1.4 or get the kit 24-105.
If I get the 5d2 body for around $2200 and the 50 1.4 for about $350 the total($2550) is only a couple hundred short of the price if I were to buy the full kit. So I guess really, I am trying to just get a little more insight on what would suit me best.
(PS. I generally shoot outside so the low light capabilities aren's too hight on the priority list)
Thanks
