[QUOTE="Proximer, post: 159840, member: 14661"] Hello, guys, I'm new here. I see a big comunity you have here, so i suppose you could hel me with one question bothering me lately. I have a D7000 and D90 and several lenses for them. One of them is 50 mm 1.8G from nikkor. I'm very satisfied with it. I mostly do portraits and weddings. However, i'm thinking about buying a 85 mm 1.8G prime next to it. I think it will pair nicely to each other, cause i'm into portrait photography. Despite the obvious good thing it will bring, i don't fully understand the differences in bokeh between those two lenses. I was googling a lot. I saw images taken on a DX camera with 85 mm. I saw the nice bokeh it brings. Nevertheless i didn't find any direct comparison of bokes and DOF between them. So, my question is, could anyone that has both of these lenses be so kind here and do me a favor. I need a direct comparison: 1. 1 picture taken with a dx camera with 85 mm 1.8G @ f/1.8 of an object (person, or other object simulating a person 180 cm high (5,9 feet high)) that fills the frame and stands about 3-4 meters (10 - 13 feet) away from a bussy background. 2. The same picture with the same conditions, only taken wit 50 mm 1.8 G @ f/1.8. (you will have to move closer for an object to fill the frame the same as in firs picture. 3. The same picture as the first one, only the object should be cut in half (simulating a half body shot) taken with 85 mm 1.8G @ f/1.8. 4. The same picture as the third one taken with 85 mm 1.8G @ f/1.8. I hope i expressed myself understandable (English is not my language) and i really believe these 4 pictures should help me making a decision. I'm really waiting for your help. If not possible to make those four pictures, please be so kind to share your experience on these two lenses in particular. Thank you in advance! :) [/QUOTE]
