I've been looking into getting a high quality manual focus prime just for kicks and some manual focusing practicing. I've been looking at the Zeiss lenses for Nikon, the thing is I have a 50 1.4 already, the Nikon 50mm 1.4 AF-D. So I was thinking of getting either a 85mm 1.4 or a 35mm 1.4 but the prices are those lenses are more than I can afford at the moment. But the thing is, the Zeiss 50mm 1.4 is priced reasonably well. And this trend seems to be mirrored with Nikon's 35mm's 50mm's and 85mm's. What is it about the 50's that make them cheaper? Do they just have less glass in them?
Oh, also suggestions for fun primes I could get. I'm willing to throw on an adaptor and try vintage lenses.
