[QUOTE="stmv, post: 101481, member: 10038"] I suspect you value sharpness over shallow dof reading between the lines, from that Marcel's multiple endorsements of the 50mm 1.8 G is your best bet. lens do have personality, each having their strength and weakness, over the 40 years, I have gotten 50mm as by products of getting cameras over time, starting with a FM, so,, 50mm 1.2, 1.4, 1.8, 1.8E, and 2.0 1.8D autofocus, 1.4 autofocus,, but alas,, not the G,, laughs, saturated in 50mm lens. and well, why keep them versus settling on the best, well, because each have their own personality and subtle effects on pictures. For sharpest of my set,,, 50mm 2.0,, nice.... the one I enjoy the most,,, the 50 mm 1.2, and no that is not the sharpest of the bunch. but coming to the recommendation,, I think from a fresh start,,, currently,,, 1.8G as was stated earlier.
