Hello everyone...

I am usually on the sports forum, but I needed to ask a question...I am looking into buying a lens for portrait photography...Can you guys make a suggestion? I have looked at the 50mm f/1.8.

We have a new addition to the family...a Ragdoll kitten...and I want to pose him, and get some really good shots...And I also have some awards ceremonies to go to, that I will need to get some Really good posed shots for sale....

I would love any info you can get me started with, since this is new to me...any setting info would be greatly appreciated as well....trying to expand my capabilities....

Thanks everyone...
