[QUOTE="Dr Daniels, post: 48604, member: 9097"] On my former DX body, I used to shoot portraits with the modest 'Made in China' 50mm f/1.8D. The results were amazing for the price you pay. I also had the 85mm f/1.8D on that DX, and I found it to be good on close-up portraits only. But the 50mm was on my DX most of the time. I have read countless reports of people upgrading from the 50mm f/1.8D to the f/1.4D and admit no improvements on results. The Nikkor 50mm f/1.8 should be compulsory in every photographers' bag.
