It's a good FX prime that will work on your DX camera. The 50mm f/1.4 is more expensive, but I don't expect you would get your money's worth from that price difference.With the three lenses that you do have, you can practice shooting your 18-55mm zoomed out to 55mm, or your 55-300mm zoomed out to 85mm to see the compositional differences of each. You won't get the same bokeh as either prime would give you, but you'll get the idea of how much working room you need and how lens distortion may (or may not) play a role in your compositions.</blockquote>
