Re: What Portrait lens

[Bob <w8imo@xxxxxxxx>]

One thing about macro lenses, they are usually tack sharp.  This could be less than a good thing for a portrait lens.

Nikon have just brought out their latest f=60mm macro lens. This on a D60 would give a field of view equivalent to a 90mm lens, perfect for portraits.
Alternatively, look at the Sigma f=70 macro or f=105mm macro lenses. All ideal, and double up as a macro lens as well. Hard to beat really!
