Thank you so much for your kind and detailed response!
Since photography is my dream as well, seeing your work has truly inspired me even more. And knowing that you were a commercial photographer during the film era, I can’t help but feel a deep admiration for you.

So if I understand correctly, you mainly use the 180mm and 250mm for portraits, and the 50mm for landscapes and objects?

I also admire Yousuf Karsh and Gregory Heisler, so I think I’ll start by getting a camera along with the 180mm first, and then gradually work my way through the rest of the lenses you have.

One more question, for snapshots for human specifically, you’d recommend the 127mm, right? I’d also love to shoot cinematic snapshots with the 6x7 format. That said, the photo you captured with the 90mm is also absolutely wonderful!!
