Comment on A Love Letter to My Favorite Lens by Doug Vann

Yes the 85f1.2 is certainly a highly rated lens for sure. My favourite lens is my Canon 70-200f2.9L IS II. I do a lot of shots outdoors and this one delivers spectacular results and also is able to handle amazing portrait shots as well. Have also used it during wedding photography. Not a cheap price but you get what you pay for……

Hi Susan!

Indoors really depends on my light source. For portraits, I still usually use AV mode, and will open my aperture and/or raise my ISO if my shutter speed is too slow. Indoors, if my light source is artificial (such as a table lamp or wall sconce) I will often add a bit of light with a video light, so that I can have a fast enough shutter speed. If I’m using a flash indoors, I am almost always in Manual mode on the camera. Hope this helps!

Hello, very interesting and useful. Do you have a similar “formula” for portraits indoors? I find shooting Av inside can result in a too slow shutter speed. Regards. Susan

At least it was 1pm not 1am that you went back to editing. ;)

Is it wrong that I read this and went straight back to my editing? :) Seriously though, I think we all probably needed this! Thank you!

Thanks for the article Earl. Terrific visual chart–you make it all look so obvious in one glance for strobe beginners like me. Convinced now to get a mini with Plus II.
