Portrait - Akshitha

Akshitha

Canon EOS 400D with Canon EF 50mm F/1.8 lens, 1/100s at f/1.8, ISO 100. This lens is Canon's cheapest, but from an image quality perspective a really good one, not to mention extremely fast at f/1.8. On a 1.6X FOV crop sensor like the one on 400D, the 50mm standard becomes a great 80mm portrait lens.
