The 1.8 50s, including those for the mirrorless, are affordable, sharp (in my opinion) lenses. Getting into photography, this is a great lens. I have,…Read More

For a prime lens, my favourite is the 85mm f/1.4. I don’t own one but often find myself borrowing it. It’s an exceptional lens for portraits, although the Canon version is quite pricey. I’m considering the Canon RF 85mm F2 MACRO IS STM as an alternative. Its 1:2 macro feature makes it versatile, good for portraits, and ideal for product…Read More
