Just a lens... Taken with my nifty fifty


IMAGE: http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5256/5511367637_f44857d159_z.jpg


A portrait shot

Shot wide open at 1.8mm. This was done on purpose to render the far shoulder OOF and have a really blurred Bokeh...

hello people wrote in post #11983318 (external link)
Who thinks the nifty 50 is just fine for street photography on a 1.6 crop body?

I do. I tend to prefer close-ups rather than wide-angle shots.

But then it all depends on what I point it at:

What do you mean? Nifty-fifty coming out as winner. According to what criterion?

Correct focus and sharpness. Bokeh may be better on the images shot with faster versions however, it will matter little if focus and sharpness fall behind.;)

This lens has me up at 4:30 in the morning viewing photos that was taken using this lens. I keep glancing over at my camera bag. Wondering if I should whip it out. lol
