I am in a place where I love me long telezoom (70-300mm VR) and my "go to" lens (24-85mm VR) and I have been looking closer at my nifty fifty 50mm 1.8G.
Back when I still had my D7000 it was never very sharp, in portrait on 1.8 the eyes (I always aim to the eyes in portraits) came out soft, I thought it was my D7000 so I didnt make much of it but now with my new D7100 I dont see a whole lot improvement.
Its ok but not crisp and sharp as I excpect a prime lens to be, its actually not as sharp as my 24-85mm VR.
I hear a lot of good feedback on the 85mm lens, how sharp it is and perfect of portrait so I wonder how true is it ?
I am not talking about the 85mm 1.4G, thats an expensive lens out of my league, I am talking about the 85mm 1.8G or the 85mm 1.8D.
How sharp are they really (especially compared to the 50mm 1.8G), is there any difference ?
Is there any sharpness differences between the 85mm 1.8G or D models ?
The "D" is cheaper so is it worth buying over the "G" ?
