<p>interesting thread!!<br>

I too, am curious about what is a good portrait lens, I am thinking of setting up a studio in my home, and already own the 28-135 IS lens, and the 50mm 1.4 lens,, both of which I am not 100% sold on for good portrait shots. I really miss my kit lens when I bought my rebel way back when (the 17-55 lens, which I sold with that camera) although it wasn't a good quality lens, I am thinking of purchasing on but a little higher on the quality level. As I said I am thinking of getting a studio set up, it won't be for a while yet,, just fooling around with numbers and getting some lighting equipment lined up. I plan on playing plenty once I get the rooms designed and ready for action, so perhaps I'll fool around a bit more with what I have now, then see if I need to upgrade,, I'm looking at the lens that Jeff suggested... the 17-40 L lens.</p>
