Can you use a 50mm lens for family portraits?
A 50mm prime should be wide enough to shoot group portraits outside, but if you’re shooting inside, then you have to consider whether you have enough space to back up and get everyone in the frame. Unfortunately, sometimes you won’t know that until you get there and put everyone together.
