Pls advise

you're right about depends on what lens to suit your shoot style...Anything and everything?
At my last shoot on Sunday I used everything from 14-200 and wished I'd not left my fisheye at home. I could probably have found use for a longer lens too had the necessity popped up...
There just is not "right" lens for shooting portraiture, or anything else for that matter.
Catchlights means well, but from his list I would skip everything other than the 85/1.4, the 105/2 and the 200/2. I would add the 85PC.
Of his list I only own the 50/1.4 and the 85/1.4 (have owned and have experience with the others), and brought neither down to my shoot on Sun. Or Sat, for that matter.
In both those shoots I wished I had wider than 14mm on a DX although it was okay on FX, and not at any point did I wish I'd brought any of my 1.4 primes. Or that I had either of the f2 DCs or the 85PC, although the 24PC would have been handy had I brought it.
That doesn't mean he's wrong, it's just he has his style of shooting, and I have mine.
And you will have yours.
I just sharing my point is shooting portrait can just start with whatever ones has, and go on from there, not necessary must get what or what,
what we recommend is what we think it suppose to be, but actually is what we want or need. may not really fit into their need. beside, as a newbie have not develop a style or should we say what he really like and good at, the choice of lenses may change over the time as ones style/skills evolve.
D5000 can only focus with AF-S lenses, unless TS is comfortable with MF. Else i think only "left" the 200mm F2 is the best lens. :devil:Sure I agree completely ^.^
Your previous post did look like an upgrade list though! Kit lens -> buy 50/1.8 -> buy 50/1.4 etc.

you can start with your kit lens,
than go to 50f1.8
than go to 50.f1.4
than go to 85f1.8
than go to 85f1.4
than go to 105f2 DC
than go to 135f2 DC
than go to 200 f2
Stallone was more efficient, simply send by post.This reminds me of Leon (The Professional)... except in reverse. He said the closer you can get to the target, the more professional you are (the first stage is sniper gun, last stage is use knife) :bsmilie:
thanks for the advise..
how abt the photo that those pro taken, is it edited or already like this in the photo?
Pls advise.
Don need so many lens.
Just buy the 600mm f4, the dof will be very shallow, very good for bluring the background in a model shoot.
