very nice! DOF appears a bit off...maybe lower your eye level a bit.

I really like it, agree about the DOF tho...whats a D50 worth?

50 mm 1.8

I am thankful for the advice on this forum to buy this lens. Works better than the kit lens.

Thanks

do you know what DOF stands for?

Yes. What do you mean I should 'lower my eye level'? Get more angle? How would I increase the DOF without changing the framing too much (with this particular kind of shot)?

the level of your lens appears to be high on the brush. the shallow DOF caused the bristle tips to be a bit out of focus. capeesh?
