LocalHero1953 Posted April 19 Share #21 Â Posted April 19 Advertisement (gone after registration) I like this portrait - except for the giant's hands! But perhaps I'm over-sensitive to perspective in portraits (ref my post #6). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted April 19 Posted April 19 Hi LocalHero1953, Take a look here Which Mandler 50mm for portraits at 4-5 ft.. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
RDJ Posted April 19 Author Share #22  Posted April 19 (edited) I’m reshooting this to minimize the distortion of the hands, but still want to incorporate the phone which is part of his personality.  You can crop a bit while including the phone and it helps.  I the purpose of the image was to show an example of the sharpness and rendering of a DR at f/2.8.  In regard to perspective if you are not doing studio portraits for sale but character studies you can throw out some of the rules.   Edited April 19 by RDJ Clarity Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowmagnon Posted May 15 Share #23  Posted May 15 (edited) How about 50mm f1 noctilux. This should be around 5ft I guess. Welcome, dear visitor!
