Just entering the world of LF from the realm of Polaroids. Bought a Burke and James camera and am looking for a lens that I can take head and shoulder shots. One of our esteemed members suggested I'd need a lens between 500-600mm, but another working pro who makes 4x5 tintypes suggested a 300mm would do the trick.
Who's right? What size lens would be best? I'd probably also be doing some full-body shots, as well. Cropping is not really possible, as I'd be shooting instant film.
Cheers,
Jeff
