You have total control over the aperture, which is so fun. This lens is wonderful for the aperture priority setting  . Also, great for low light settings.
I love THIS guy's flickr - and this is his set of 50mm Prime (a selection) pics. He may be using the more pricey 1.4 Nikkor Prime lens, but regardless...this is what you could do w/ a prime....
There are other options too, but more expensive...depends on where you're at, but I LOVE the 1.8...love it! |
Yes, I looove the pic's in that link - that's the look I want. So you think this 1.8 will allow me to get similar results?
Sorry, Ann....I know you've told us about prime lenses before and I hated to ask again.
I was hoping for an answer tailer-made for my camera...and I got it! I think I'm going to just go ahead and order the one you recommended - I really want to get that bokeh effect.
Thanks!!
