Like the 35mm lens discussed above, the 50mm option gives you enough of a view of the surroundings to give the shot some context, but with a longer focal length, you can create a more intimate full body or half body portrait than you can with a 35mm lens. Typically, 50mm lenses come in f/1.8, f/1.4 or f/1.2 variations, the latter of which is
This Nikon Z 50mm f/1.8 is rather different from the older, 50mm f/1.8G for Nikon F-mount. While the F-mount version is optically decent, especially when stopped down, this newer version is extraordinarily sharp at every aperture, and hence is very nice for almost all subjects.

Personally speaking, I prefer to go a bit longer than 50mm and instead reach for a 55mm lens, but options like the Canon RF 50mm f1.2 L USM are otherwise stellar. 50mm lenses can also be great for
It is vastly different between the two shots. In a full-body scenario where the subject remains the same size, you can see the same differences. The background appears closer in the 50mm shot, while the body feels elongated in the 35mm shot. In this scenario, the 50mm feels more natural. 0q6j.
