The lens you just ordered is a wonderful lens. I used it for over 20 years, and you definitely will get great depth of field with it. I have a Nikon D300 and several film Nikons. I needed to replace it, so I got the new 50 1.4G, but only because I wanted something that I could use with less light I also recommend the 35 1.8 Nikon lens for a wider angle if you find the 50mm is too tight, but you will love the 50 mm too. I use several zooms, but the primes are great for low light and shallow depth of field,and eventually you will find great uses for both. Enjoy the camera and the lens. |
