As a photographer, shooting food is a daily job. Anyway, this job seems rare. After all, photographers like wedding photography and baby photos are common, but there are still few food photographers.

Maybe I often take a photo while eating, but it always doesn't work. What is the difference?

First of all, the first equipment, professional photographers, we are all professional SLR plus flash.

Secondly, with creativity, seemingly random placement is actually a carefully arranged scene.

Finally, the last step of our strict shooting process is post-retouching. Yes, no matter how good the film is, it will always feel worse without retouching.

Ok, the lens we are talking about today, good lenses are not cheap, but there are a few inexpensive lenses that can always make good films. You may have heard of "little spittoon", yes, any manufacturer of 50mm 1.8 lens is still a conscience.

I recommend two kinds of food shots. 24-50mm within 50 mm often takes photos of many dishes or big scenes with this focal length. The other is telephoto macro lens, Longteng 90 macro, Canon 100 macro and so on. They are all competent, and these are the focus. Yes, I like to use fixed focus at work, and the picture quality is nothing to say. Cheap zoom heads always have poor image quality, while good zoom heads have good image quality, but the price is obviously expensive.

It is basically no problem to shoot with two lenses when going out. My combination is Canon 40mm2.8 and 100mm2.8, one lens is big and one lens is small, one lens is wide and one lens is long, which is basically enough for all shooting. Of course, you can buy a 24-70mm2.8 head in one step, and the picture quality is also very good. One head is enough. This kind of coke is a panacea. Well done. Even if it's more expensive, those two lenses are not as expensive as him.

40mm2.8 pan/tilt, commonly known as cookie head, is very small, which is basically the same as what is not installed on 1Dx, but this focal section is very good and light, and the price is less than 1 thousand. The aperture of 2.8 is large enough and the picture quality is good.

In fact, the choice of working lens is basically wide angle+medium focus, which is enough for all shooting, and the configuration within 6000 is also enough.
