What Is "Prime Lens" ?

In film and photography, a prime lens is either a photographic lens whose focal lenght is fixed, as opposed to a zoom lens, or it is the primary lens in a combination lens system.

Confusion can sometimes result due to the two meanings of the term if the context does not make the interpretation clear. Alternative terms primary and fixed focal length or FFL are sometimes used to avoid ambiguity.The best thing about AF Nikkor 50mm is the max aperture f/1.8..hahaha for "bokeh" crazy.....this is your lens.......here some of my 50mm ......

Portrait Photography





Portrait photography or portraiture is the capture by means of photography of the likeness of a person or a small group of people (a group portrait), in which the face and expression is predominant. The objective is to display the likeness, personality, and even the mood of the subject. Like other types of portraiture , the focus of the photograph is the person's face, although the entire body and the background may be included. A portrait is generally not a snapshot, but a composed image of a person in a still position. A portrait often shows a person looking directly at the camera.
