Here's a continuation test of the new Nikon 50mm prime 1.8 lens . . . shot this in the hallway of my home with no other light source, other than the ambient light from the hallway light. I was able to shoot this at a 30th of a second at f/1.8. ISO is set to 640. I love the softness this lens offers . . . and the graininess. In an age of Photoshop sharp, smooth and gloss, I think this grainy, soft, natural lighting image is something very fresh . . . what do you think?

Special thanks go out to my wonderful model . . . my daughter, Peyton.
