Best lens for Bonsai Photography: Sony A6000

[cbrshadow23]

I'm trying to up my game with bonsai photography. I bought a black background and a white background, some photography lights, and have a Sony A6000 mirrorless camera. I'm wondering what lens I should look into buying. I've been using a "FE 1.8/50" prime lens, but I'm wondering if there are better optiions.
Any help appreciated!

This is a great video from Bjorn on this topic. I essentially copied his recommendations, which boil down to get as large of an aperture as you can. I shoot with an F/1.4 50mm prime lens, and find I like it, but I would like to get a 28mm or 35mm for closer shots--sometimes I don't have the space for being further out.

A tripod is also a great idea, as it will let you shoot longer exposures if you need to.

I am typically in the 70-100mm range.
I do not see the need for an F2 or so. In the end, you are after depth of focus, rather than shallow focal range. Mostly I shoot in F5.6 for my trees.

I do not think you need anything special for bonsai photography tbh. They are sitting in one place and you can control the complete setup
