Every photographer should have at least one good 50mm lens. I have rather more than one.
In my opinion, a good 50mm lens should be versatile, have pleasing bokeh, offer a reasonably fast maximum aperture for working in lower light and become sharp when stopped down. There are plenty of 50mm prime lenses to choose from, both old and new. In this article, I compare six different lenses and explore the character each one brings to a photograph. I hope you enjoy seeing how they differ.
