Hi Guys,
My Fiancee collects Emma Bridgewater pottery. We have a Canon DSLR. She thrives on taking a variety of photos with said camera but currently our choice of 18-55mm and nifty thrifty 50mm is proving limiting.
Effectively she wants some very up close shots which are pin sharp and with a nice wide aperture for excellent bokeh and poor lighting conditions. I'd also likely use the lens to for photographing my culinary delights! She may stretch to an add-on flash too if this is recommended.
What would you guys suggest? Budget is flexible, though I doubt we would want to go down the expensive L-glass route. I don't know, let's say £200-£400?
I don't have any real experience on this type of photography.
