QUOTE(destfull @ Nov 8 2010, 10:33 PM) ieR : is that a real woman? Her face looks like a man tho =P I agree, such an insult! p.s. noob question: I see a lot of people prefer to use 70-200mm to take portraiture, why is that? Why don't they use lenses shorter focal lengths like 24-70mm? Does standing closer to the model will make the model uneasy?

QUOTE Note that I did not mention focal length as influencing depth of field. Even though telephoto lenses appear to create a much shallower depth of field, this is mainly because they are often used to make the subject appear bigger when one is unable to get closer. If the subject occupies the same fraction of the image (constant magnification) for both a telephoto and a wide angle lens, the total depth of field is virtually* constant with focal length! http://www.cambridgeincolour.com/tutorials...th-of-field.htmThis post has been edited by evilhomura89: Nov 8 2010, 10:05 PM

destfull: hahaha no worries, i believe people see that too, because the lady, is not super leng like KL model ma... she is mix local sarawak ethnic.
why 70200, few thing i learned...
longer focal length affect the bokeh, its more softer with long zoom then short focal pushing F1.4 to bring out the bokeh. longer focal length do not need extreme wide aperture to bring bokeh, due to, when zoomed, the BG is magnified vs subject, hence a small round bokeh actually appear bigger in 200mm F2.8 then in 50 F1.4.
and YES, longer focal makes DOF shallow. so will subject distance.
