    Here's a picture of the new kid on the block. This is my great nephew with my sister, his great aunt (psst, don't tell her I called her a great aunt, okay? ;) ) This was taken with my newest toy, a 50mm f1.8 lens at 1/60 & f5.6 using available light. First time processing RAW images. No PP, just jpeg conversion.

    Yep...best price on a Nikon prime IMO. With the 1.5 multiplier, it's perfect for portraits at 75mm.

    Can't wait to use this at WDW over Memorial Day weekend next month. :D

    see it's started already, you get a camera and the kit lens, then you just need one more, oh it's ok, it'll let me take a better picture of the precious grandchildren, then you wake up one fine day with an old gun cabinet full of lenses and accessories, with no idea how this happened

    I am not a member of the Columbia House lens of the month club. I have become a bang for the buck buyer now in all my toys as my wallet is having a fit
