Hi Keith,


I absolutely agree, but he want's to use it on a FF 5DII. I happen to use the 85L f/1.2 on a 7D crop body and I agree that it's perfect on a crop body.


I like your quote and I never thought of it that way. I've always realized that the longer focal lengths, compresses facial features and slims bodies, essentially causing a slimming effect, which most families like. However.., I never really gave it much thought that the opposite effect also applies, b<span style="font-size: 11.6667px;"]ut it certainly makes sense, and yet I'm well aware that too short a focal length and too close distorts body parts.


Let me also add, that I don't do posed portraits, but I do love my candids.
