Hire Standard Prime Lenses
Rent a standard prime lens which is a common lens for street photography, portraiture and food photography, and are considered a good all-rounder lens.
Standard prime lenses usually have a focal length of around 50mm (full-frame equivalent). It is often said that a 50mm focal length most closely represents the experience of seeing with the human eye, giving the depth, distortion and angle of view in the image a natural feeling.
Prime lenses are lenses which have a fixed focal length, as opposed to zoom lenses which can transition from one focal length to another.
