after I went to nuggets today to get some cheese and crackers I decedid to give ritz camera another chance and make some prints. So I grabbed my trusty D50 and went to this store and during waiting, I played with some lenses.

At least I wanted too...

after I asked them a couple of questions like

do you have....

- Nikon 50mm F1.4 -> no
- Sigma 50mm F2.8 Macro -> no
-Tamerom 90mm F.28 Macro -> no
- Kenko Extension Tubes -> no
- Nikon DR-6 Viewfinder ->
- Nikon 50mm F1.8 -> yes

yes?
Wow this was a first. So I played with the tiny gem 5 minutes and bought it afterwards. Originally I wanted the 50mm F1.4 ( 350$) but the F1.8 (120$) seemed a way better deal for me and I read quiete good reviews about this particular lens. Except that the mount of the newer models is a plastic mount...

Needless to say I just got another lens and I'm totally impressed. Except that it's really hard to make pictures, cause the depth of field is so small. The picture above was taken with a SB-600, F1.8. And is quite nice. (Except that I focussed on the glasses and so many stuff is out of focus...) Posted by Picasa
