Hello all,


I could really use your input on this matter.


I also do the "other" kind of portraiture work - meaning: nudes. My current lens lineup includes:


The Canon 24-105mm f4, the 100mm f2,8 IS Macro and the 85mm f1,2 L prime. Basically, great lineup for portraits.


Unfortunately, the 24-105 is not so great for portraits, considering the max aperture of f4. The other two are good, but a little on the long side. I noticed in my portraits, that the body features and facial features are a little compressed and lose the feeling of depth. While that is usually wanted and a nice effect, I was wondering if the opposite - a slight exaggeration of body features - would create nice portraits? I am assuming, I wider lens than my 85mm would be a good choice.


Can any of you recommend a good lens for portraiture that creates this feeling of depth and slightly exaggerates body features? What would you choose - 50mm? Or even 35mm? Prime or zoom?


Thanks!
Tom
