And yesterday I bought a new lens - the nifty fifty. I am loving it. I took a ton of pictures with very shallow depth of field...because I can. Dwight is not impressed. But I am so that's what matters. Maybe I'll upload some of them and post a link for you so you can declare whether you're in my camp or in Dwight's camp. :)
10:02 pm update click here to see twenty pictures I took with the new lens.

I like the last one best. The DOF is way too shallow for me on these, I do like shallow DOF but I guess I'm not loving the lack of focus on part of his face. But congrats on the new lens, fun times!
I am loving it! You can ALWAYS use a higher f stop and get more in focus! But the be able to control the DOF is what is so cool. There is a local young photographer doing some really good stuff and she uses a 35mm 1.8! That has become my newest lens to covet! But first my bank account will need several more deposits!! Anyone wanting to contribute????? I didn't think so.....
Yeah these pictures are taken at 1.4 so super, super shallow. If you look at the album, I did close down a little. (Like you said Jeri, love the control!) But those shots were taken sitting at the kitchen table with very marginal lighting so i was stoked!
