Hi everyone. I shoot with a crop sensor Canon camera (Rebel XTi) and am looking to buy a better portrait lens for it. I currently use the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 and occasionally the Canon 50mm f/1.8. The Canon 50/1.8 isn't a very good lens however (quality-wise) and was considering upgrading to the 50mm f/1.4, otherwise I've been recommended an 85mm and 60mm lens. I plan on renting a couple lens before I choose one to buy but if anyone has any suggestions for lenses that are well-compatible with a crop sensor body that would be great.
I know that my Sigma was built for a crop sensor body so it does work well. But other then that I'm not sure quality-wise to consider:
- Canon 50mm f/1.4
- Sigma 50mm f/1.4
- Canon 60mm f/2.8
- Canon 85mm f/1.8
- Sigma 85mm f/1.4
I prefer a wide aperture so would consider sticking with something that shoots f/1.4 but I heard 60 shoots well for portraits so... (but it'd be equivalent to 96mm on my body).
Thanks!
