Lens suggestion
Dec 1, 2017 11:52:07 #
Would like any suggestions or recomendations for a lens. Will be used in bad light in a stall of new babies with their mothers. Flash will probably be out of the question. Have a nikon 7200 and have no oroblem with getting an fx lens. Thanks

I would suggest a lens of aperture 1.8 or 1.4, probably a prime lens (not zoom).

Sigma 18-35mm F1.8 ART zoom lens.
The perfect solution!

I agree with the suggestion of the Sigma 18-35 1.8. I have one and love it. However, you may find you need to introduce some more light. I say this since the subject is babies. A 1.8 is going to give a rather shallow depth of field. Babies tend to not want to hang out inside the DOF for very long. By that I mean not at all. As a result, you may find you want to shoot closer to f8 anyway.
Unless of course the child is in one of the two states during which they are easy to photograph. 1) asleep 2) not awake.
