But 2.8 still gives great separation from background. Consider that you'll have more separation and bokeh with the 50 mm at f2.8 than with the 35 mm at f2.8. And yes, there's less distortion with the 50 shooting closer than with the 35, which is again important for portraits.</p></blockquote><p></p>
