BEST Focal Length for Portraits?

35mm, 50mm, 85mm and 135mm. For anyone getting into portrait photography you've probably come across these prime focal lengths. These focal lengths are all great but each one affects your photo differently. The longer the focal length, the more compression. Like the background is getting bigger and closer to your subject.
The best focal length is the one that serves you best, and that's because the best portrait lens doesn't exist!
I enjoy shooting with a 35mm over all the others because it means I don't have to be 20ft away from my subject. I can use it in smaller studios and tighter spaces. It doesn't obliterate the background like an 85 or 135mm. I can also capture more environment in my scene. The 35mm works with my shooting style and for me; the most versatile. I can use it in so many different scenarios where the others can't.
Everyone has a different style and what my favourite lens is might not be yours. You might like the look of the 135mm. You might like that you're always going to get an extremely blurry background with an insane amount of compression.
The "best" lens doesn't exist!

85mm is the most flattering for portraits, 35mm is good for portraits but also when you wanna show off the scene around your subject.

The two are different types of portraits. It depends what you are trying to create. The 135 is more photographic but the 35 is better for video as well since it gives you more in the background. Almost all non photographers that have seen my photos have picked the ones taken with 135 over the rest of them.

Alternatively 2 bodies: APS-C and FF, with 2 lenses: a good 50-58mm 1.4 or 1.2 lens (80-85 on Canon APS-C) and a 135 1.8-3.5 or similar. 50mm, 80mm, 135 and 200mm on uncropped sensors with just 2 primes and 2 cameras. If you manage to find primes with lesser elements than modern ones, you can even have a nice 3d-pop, not only background blur! But 35mm is for real sometimes nice, even a 24mm 1.4 works nice for "special" looks. I was mainly shooting the compact and light EOS RP + RF 50 1.8 combo, feels basically like a Budget-Leica but with more features.

I have them all. They all have their place. 35mm for street ports and or indoors for group shots. 50, 85, and 135 are great portraits lenses but you need more distance to shoot with them. A 70-200 would be a great addition to your list. Additional focal length compression more expensive and alot heavier. My favorite and least used is the 135. Not sure which lens or focal works for you, try renting one to help your purchase decision

But on crop sensor it is effectively a 75mm or 80mm. That 75-80mm range is best for portraits, I find (just my opinion, of course). If you want the real nifty fifty perspective (to see things as our eyes see them), then on a crop sensor you need to use the 35mm - this converts to 52mm with a 1.5 crop factor.

35mm definitly distorts the face. Even 50mm does. 85mm makes the background get really tight but the face is more natural. Talking about full frame. Depends what you are going for. If background is interesting and important then take the 35mm, if its more important to get an accurate portrait then take 85mm. 50mm is the perfect middle ground.

@@Xirpzy distortion is based on the subject distance to the camera NOT the lens focal length. so 35mm doesnt distort the subject. neither does a rectilinear 16mm distort a subject, again, what distorts a subject is how close you are to the subject with the camera.
@Xirpzy
@Xirpzy 3 ай бұрын
@@truthseeker6804 look at direct comparisons with normal portraiture framing. There are some here on youtube and plenty on google images. The 16mm will not look like a 85mm when the subject takes up the same amount of space in the photo. Even a rectilinear lens wont fix that. Sure if you step waay back and crop you might get something similar but then the background compression will be completely different unless you mess with aperture. There is a reason why 50 and 85mm are considered portrait focal lengths and 16mm is generally not.

Unless I'm doing groups or environmentals, 35 is a no-go for portraits. It absolutely distorts the face unless you're further back (50 does as well). I'm at 85 or longer for anything 3/4-shot or tighter. All subjective of course, but that's the beauty of this (and any) art form.

​@@braedon8802 It all depends. Imagine a portrait shot on a mountain capturing another "small" (in the frame) mountain row as background. Then anything between 70-100mm could be usable to show context. I prefer 50-100mm for portraits of any kind, 35mm might work for full body shots, poses and so but i prefer face and more details/cropped in But i also have not invested yet in anything below 50mm, except a 17-55 2.8 on APS-C which is not that great with its F2.8 and considering APS-C crop so effective F4, more like F5.6 look.

I think you're focusing on the wrong part initially. Most of these lenses will create a shallow enough depth of field to create separation, and conversely can be closed down enough to not obliterate the background Look at the faces instead. What focal length is most flattering to the shape of the face/body. I think your conclusion at the end is good if you're trying to make it an environmental portrait photo, but that might not be the most important consideration for every portrait.

(€1100,-) but it gets you most focal lenghts you'll need. Just quickly looking online, a sigma 85mm is already more than half the price of the 70-200.

There are 3 thing effect while different lenses for portrait 1. As you switch to higher focal lenght background will be compressed more means getting out from the frame 2. As you switch to higher focal length you have to go back and far away from subject to capture the same focal lenght 3 as you switch the lense to higher focal lenght your focal lenght will more accurate😊😊

Honestly for APS-C which is what the ZVE-10 is I'd definitely recommend the Sigma 16mm 1.4: geni.us/ki5Z . It becomes more of a 24mm after the crop but you do get a shallow depth of field for great bokeh. There's not too many lenses other than the Sigma 16 that can get wider than that at that aperture.

35mm for fashion. 85mm+ for 1/4 portrait.

My Samsung S22 Ultra has a 100x zoom. It’s great at maximum zoom for storytelling if you’re a microbiologist.

The fact the you can see the buildings in the background tells me your using slow cheap lenses. Use the 85 @ 1.2, you won’t recognize the building behind the subject.

There is no lens compression. If you move back far enough where you keep the subject the same size, the bokeh is identical no matter what focal length you use.

Hi I have an XT3 and I'm looking for, ideally, an all-in-one lens I can use for events, portraits, and lowlight. Any recommendations? Note: I love that Fuji lenses are small and easy to carry, but if I don't need to carry multiple lenses, I'd rather not. Thanks! 🙏

What do you guys suggest? I'm thinking of buying Canon r8 or Sony alpha 7iv. What do you suggest, and which lens should I have for wedding? My buget is cca 1500$. I was thinking something like a 24-150mm and a 35mm f1.4 Any advice would help!❤
