The lens: EF-S60mm, EF-50mm, and the kit lens that came with the camera 18.55mm. I have a question, and probably I should have seen the answer in your different posts, but I’m still a bit confused, and I would love for you to help me with some clarification. Hi Rachel, Thank you for sharing your knowledge and helping others to understand the different aspects of food photography. I always recommend renting a new lens when you can so you can test it out before you buy! I would recommend you get a 60mm macro if you want to get closer to food and then use your kit lens 18-55mm to set it to 35mm (50 equivalent) for wider food scenes. The 105mm is amazing but is going to be very tight on a cropped sensor. I don’t recommend this lens for you at this stage based on what you need. The 85mm is a great lens, but its minimum focusing distance won’t allow you to get close to food. There isn’t zoom lenses that are also macro lenses (that I am aware of at the time of writing this). For these reasons, you’ll usually need more than one lens when it isn’t a zoom lens. Macro photography is great for food, but you also want to be able to capture a food scene.

Hey Fallon, so glad to hear that! I love talking about photography – clearly! The kit lens does have it’s limitations and sounds like you’re ready for something new! The lens I suggest will really depend on if you ever want to upgrade to a full-frame or not. If you can, I always recommend renting some lenses before you buy! Let me know if that helps! xx You could also look into a macro extender for your 50mm to tie you over until you get a full-frame. That leaves you with two options, save a little more for the 100-105mm (if you can), but if that’s not possible you could get the 90mm Tamron which I’ve heard nothing but good things (it will be cheaper than it’s Canon/Nikon counterparts). It is also important to get a good quality sensor, so saving to upgrade to the latest full-frame models is a good idea too. I always say to invest in the best lenses you can, as it will save you money in the long run. It’s not that it’s redundant to have the 60mm with a full-frame, it’s just I would recommend getting the 100-105mm first. So awesome to see you here Elise and first, congrats on full-time freelance! I get how important it is to make the budget we have stretch as far as we can! Once you get to full-frame, the 60mm won’t be able to do the same job as the 105mm (or 100mm if you shoot Canon).
