| Question: How crucial is a wide aperture lens for portraiture? Posted: 21 Nov 2015 10:27 AM PST 1--You say a "f1.4 lens" but you don't specify the length or the camera. This indicates to me that you might not yet fully understand the effects that different focal length lenses on different size image sensors have on the image. A 35mm 1.4 lens is going to make portraits that look very different, and require different approach, from an 85mm 1.4. When talking about lenses, one should properly call them by their full name such as Nikkor 35mm 1.8 G for example. This way, everyone knows specifically what you're talking about. The shorthand could be simply 35/1.4. But just saying 35 or 1.4 is not very useful. 2--Make a big difference from what? What lens are you currently using? If you are comparing, say, a 50mm 1.8 to a 50mm 1.4, the differences are somewhat nuanced but you should certainly know and understand these differences from reading and then you will know if the faster lens is necessary for what you're trying to do. 3--Portraits of people and animals are very different types of photographs. Pet photography is obviously very different from wild life photography. Both requiring very different lenses and methods. 4--To answer your question, "How crucial is a wide aperture lens for portraiture," it's not crucial at all. You can take perfectly great portraits with a 50/2 or 85/2 for example. The reason you'd want to upgrade to a 50/1.4 or an 85/1.4 would be a.) You want a brighter viewfinder to aide in manual focusing and just for viewing enjoyment, b.) you want to take photos at wider apertures which will look less conventional with a very shallow depth of field, with this, you must understand, also comes the increased likelihood of missing your focus, c.) To photograph in dimmer light with a shallow depth of field and a lower ISO. For conventional portraits, you are going to shoot in plenty of light such as outside in the daytime, at maybe f4 or f5.6. If you take portraits at f1.4, on an 85mm at say, 3 feet, your depth of field will be so shallow that it will only cover one of someone's eyes! That would be a more artsy, or silly looking, depending on if you can pull of artsy or not, portrait. Certainly, you wouldn't see, say, a magazine cover portrait shot at 1.4 on any lens. It would be at f4 or smaller. 5--If you feel that you want a more shallow depth of field, just buying new things is not necessarily the solution. Notice that if you place your subject closer to the lens and further from the background, you get a more shallow depth of field than you would if your subject was further away and/or the background was closer. So it's not just buying a particular lens, it's about knowing how to use what you have. 6--Of lenses in the same focal length, the faster versions (versions with wider maximum aperture) tend to be more expensive, bigger, heavier, have more aperture blades, thus smoother bokeh, optical quality stopped down tends to be better than slower versions but many, depending on brand and particular model, are not as sharp at their widest aperture as the slower version. But available light photographers and art photographers like the look of very shallow depth of field and tend to shoot in dim conditions, so these lenses are for them. Pro shooters also buy faster lenses because they have the money to, they probably enjoy the brighter finder, and when they buy a lens, they need it to be as flexible and ready for any condition, as possible. So I hope all these points are useful. I can't really make a recommendation to you without knowing more about your style, what you currently are using, etc. But the information above should give you the tools you need to make or start to make your own decision. Best of luck with your photography and please don't forget to choose a best answer! |
