Our first free talk, this time the topic is about choosing a lens for portrait photography.

I believe everyone still remembers that when you first bought a camera with interchangeable lenses, you always had to decide which type of lens to buy. Depending on whether you take more landscape or portrait photos, the lens you choose will be different.

When taking portraits, lenses of different focal lengths are often used. Of course, there is also the consideration of maximum aperture. In addition, whether using a modern lens or an old lens, the taste and feel of the photos will also be different.

These may be very complicated and confusing for beginners.

This time, I would like to share with you some considerations for lens selection when taking portraits, and also teach you some theories about portrait photography, such as lens focal length, aperture, and the various characteristics of new and old lenses.
