What can (35mm F1.8) Nikon prime lens is better?
What can (35mm F1.8) prime lens Nikon 55mm Lens Kit do when-18 can not? I tried my Nikon D60. I took a few shoots with 35mm f1.8 in low light indoors, so I took some shoot same condition with lens kit 18-55mm (35mm set was f5) but got higher ISO. The result almost the same. Is it my highest priority (f1.8, 35mm) great for portraits? I read 50 mm is good for portraits, but my goal 35mm DX lens is, do you think will be equal to 50 mm with which people speak? Thanks
If I was doing the two shots at f / 5, were not using the 35mm lens their full potential. Here's the deal – it involves some math, but bear with me – had set the camera for aperture priority (mode) and used instead of f / 1.8 f / 5, which had won three stops. Three stops means you could have lowered the ISO 800-100. OR 1600-200. Had he done that, there would has been no digital noise which means better image quality. So the 35 mm is really much better in low light, but only if you use it correctly f / 1,8. Another thing you can do that can not be at f / 5, is to isolate the issue with selective attention. When you focus on something close throughout the rest of the image fades into background blur. At f / 5, the background remains relatively strong. This opens up many creative possibilities. As to the portraits of about a 50mm lens provides a more nice to see. With the 35mm lens has to be very close to your subject fill the frame with gunshots to the head and this translates into a distortion very close. On the other hand, shooting to mind is about the only thing that a 50mm lens is good for a D60. Your 35 mm lens is perfect for full-length portraits, general photography, interior and night street photography.
