Is this w/ or w/out flash? I'm sorta confused. Breny, one key thing to do when things aren't adding up is to hit your "info" key, and write down all of your settings. Are you wanting to use flash or *not* wanting to use flash here?
A-mode should be similar (in theory/results) to Portrait mode - but I like A-mode much more, as you will have more control there.

Since you love using primes, have you considered Nikon's new 85mm prime? It's supposed to be really nice, and it's a macro lens, which is really fun to use. |
It seems like when I'm at home, I use the 30mm more (bc of wider angle) - but when I go out into the world - I can't help it, the Nikkor 50mm1.8 is my walk-around lens - it's just SO light and small. I LOVE that lens.
I have been this close [] to buying the 85mm a few times. But, I already have a 60mm macro - so I just can't quite bring myself to buy the 85mm at this time. That 85 has quite a cult following for fantastic portrait pics, actually, and that's what attracts me more than anything (bc macro photos just stress me out, to be honest - I hate using tripods). I really do need to pull out my 60 and try some portraits and see if the 85 would be worth it, at some point.
