          ^ yup. I prefer the 50mm 1.4 as the 1.8 gets very soft when at anything more than f/2.5. Also the 85mm f/1.8 has a fantastic DOF effect.

          And yes I do happen to really like the Fiat 500, so sue me :)

          Daniel, what are you using for PP?

            Yeah, I only have a 50mm 1.8. No budget for something nicer right now =(.

            Wait, were you using a 1.8 on those?

              i.e. it's a necessary but somewhat unpleasant chore and they want something to make the task a little easier and insulate them from the process."

                    I was hoping to get into a new G-wagon or the GLK.

                      I use lightroom, but all those photos were straight out of the camera. i didn't feel like editing them, haha.

                      i was using the Nikkor 35mm f/1.8G stopped down to f/2.5. great, sharp, fast focusing, cheap, all around lens (for Nikon DX bodies).

                      i think canon has a 35mm f/2 lens that is good, but i don't know their system as well as i know nikon.
