Any photographers in here?

The 85 f/1.8 is the same money as the 50 f/1.4... it's just a question of 1, enough room to work with, and 2, is the extra stop of light important.

Yeah, the 50mm is more on my list than the 85mm for what I usually shoot. 50mm is such a good distance for photos...

50mm = 80mm when converted to a full frame view. 85mm is considered the "ideal" focal length for portraits. That's why the 50mm works so well on a crop frame body.

+1 to this.

that first pic is pretty good EDM6, the send 2 the car kinda gets lost... with everything going on. it'd be better without the shadows on the car, but you can't always control everything! lol

Kind of busy backgrounds. Try simplifying things to draw more attention to your subject!
