    Hi,

    Looking at 24-70 Canon L lens.

    Mostly do street and portrait….

    Should I go for this or look at the 50mm or 85 mm L lenses.

    Appreciate any feedback.

    At the moment when taking portrait and street photos what lens and focus length range are you using.

    The prime lenses may be restrictive for street photography, but they are great lenses. I have used the 85mm F1.2 and own the F1.8 and are perfect for portraits.

    Something I do before buying a lens is searching the lens on flickr or 500px and seeing how the photos look and how people are using it. The 85mm f1.2 pool https://www.flickr.com/groups/85-12open/pool/” onclick=”window.open(this.href);return false; l

    I have the Nikon 24-70 and I must say it is my most used lens,
    I always bring it on holidays with me and nine times out of ten it is
    the only one I need.
    A versatile lens which is on my camera 80% of the time. Not that I
    do a lot of street photography but I am sure it would be fine for that
    also.
