Nikon user, need advise on 50 1.4 vs 85 1.8 for potrait use?
i agree it's a nice lens/length, but you will get much less use out of it vs a shorter focal length. get them the50 now, and the 85 next year if they want to do more portrait work.- Mr_Penut

i'd suggest the 50 on a crop body. the 85 isgoing to seem like a lens over 100mm, which is not nearly as useful.- Mr_Penut

should i get a CA Azur 840c or a Marantz CD5001 (or equiv) and Opus DAC
true. if only you could ditch the computer as a source, and spend that money on a balanced cd player instead. you NEED the dac:/ cambridge audio is the best of both worlds, and would tie you over until you decide whether you want computer, or cd as main form of listening. How much is a used...- Mr_Penut
