I have a gap in coverage between 28mm and 70mm. I have been thinking about a lens in the 50mm range. I began comparing Nikon 50mm f/1.8 D and Nikon 50mm f/1.8 G.....nice inexpensive lenses both. I got distracted by the Nikon 58mm f/1.4....and I said, "Oooh.....Aahhh", that is a nice, pretty lens...and very costly!!! Now it has become more complex as I have been reviewing the Sigma 50mm f/1.4 Art...still not cheap, but very sharp with excellent reviews. This will be my version of a walk around lens for an upcoming cruise and likely more astrophotogrphy. Any suggestions, insights, slaps to the side of the head would be appreciated.
