My Favorite Focal Length for Studio Fashion

[benjikan]

Those guys use long lens so you dont get as much of the background so the subject is very isolated. If you are shooting with white fashion background in a studio, all you see is white background. I guess I dont understand why on earth you want to use long lenses. Maybe I am just making another "newbie" comment LOL.

Hans Feurer is a highly accomplished professional photographer who uses very long lenses to accomplish his look and stye somewhat like Gilles Bensimon used to do. I have in the past used a 300 mm f/2.8 outdoors to do fashion, but eventually stopped, opting for a closer more intimate direction, i.e. shorter focal lengths.
