Portrait with an 85mm

Another one of my impulse buy's happened last week.... this time it was an 85mm f/1.4 aka The Cream Machine.
Very true to it's nick name. Here's one of my first shots with it.



Really like the bokeh it produces... though not much different than the legendary 70-200 f/2.8 VR lens but in a much lighter package; easy to hand hold, extra 2 stops for low light and much smaller minimum focusing distance.

It has found a place in my bag :)

Hi Durgi,
I I just found your site and I like this picture, it's great! Did you use the Nikon D50 for this shot? I'm thinking about switching from film to digital and so I'm looking at different types of digial SLRs.
