Which focal length made you fall in love with photography?
« on: June 27, 2012, 08:49:59 PM »
I'm thinking it would have to be either a 35mm or a 50mm but let's not just limit it to that.


Accidentally i fell in love with the 35mm.  It was a fixed lens on the camera i had.

For me, it was the wider lenses; 24mm on my old Minolta Dynax

50mm F/2.0. I have more 50mm than other focal lengths in my user lenses.
