Anybody use a macro lens for Portraits? Heard maybe they have great detail and sharpness, in my sights is the Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM Macro Lens , shooting with 80D, yes I realize focal length is different on crop sensor, FF next investment, opinions please and thank you
I would not hesitate to use a "macro" lens for male portraiture, if you are looking for a rugged appearance. However, for the female you generally want a softer look. The lens that is too sharp can be unflattering.
