How to Shoot with a 55mm Lens

[@hurleygreen927]

Appreciating this video! I found a used Nikon 55mm -macro lens f/1.28 at a bargain price: it took me awhile to get used to the manual focusing feature, but once I got over that, I'm LOVING the sharpness and natural image perspective! Thanks for your information...

Thank you again for this informative perspective on the 50-55mm focal length. I'm having the debate at the moment around purchasing 35mm or a 50mm lens. I have several 35s, a 50mm m-mount and a 65mm F2 which is a really lovely lens but a bit too telephoto at time. The 24-70 f2.8 at times can be heavy especially as a walk around combo. A 50mm focal length might split the difference for me. Any thoughts?

It sounds like a 50mm could be a great fit for you! You could rent one to try it out or you could just buy and re-sell if you don't like it (relatively affordable if you buy used). Good luck!
