    @shayne233 it may seem like it but i fill up all the frame with the subject
    and i use the rule of thirds. when talking about directly i mean like.
    having about half the picture blank space while the subject is only a mere
    spec in the image.

    @Musicmixer1994 for portraits the 50mm 1.8, you should check out my latest
    video i talk about those two lenses:). and That tamron lens is good nice
    general purpose lens with a nice 2.8 aperture.

    do you think the Nikon 50mm 1.8 and 35mm 1,8 are good for portraits? i plan
    on getting one of the 2 this year. What about the Tamron SP AF17-50mm F/2.8
    Di II? I plan on getting it early March.

    @ithree6mafia That I will, lol, maybe I’ll make an un-boxing video and post
    it. say, do you use automatic autofocus selection or do you manually select
    te focus point and if so, where?

    What type of lens should I use for low light portraits? Like taking
    pictures in the city at night.

    @ithree6mafia yeah, well, you’re happy with what you have and its all good
    man. I personally like making the biggest prints I can make so I kinda do
    have to buy these really exspensive lenses 🙁 I’m kinda sad, my 70-200 is
    going to cost me $2600 atleast every lens after that is cheaper. rock on
    man!

    Urmm…No, a 35 mm lens will give you too much distortion for a portrait,
    unless you want your subject to look fat. A 50mm is ok on a crop sensor as
    they are very affordable, however an 85mm or 70-200mm would be perfect.

    Some good tips there. What is your opinion on using lens filters for
    protecting the lens? It is just that I have never really used them but a
    relative who also owns and uses a DSLR always has a lens filter on his
    camera lens and swears by them, Should I buy a cheap filter from amazon or
    do the cheaper ones have any noticeable effect on picture quality. Thanks.

    to the eyes

    I can learn alot from you, thanks for posting eh? I would say if you don’t
    like those image stabilized 70-200s, look for the Nikon 80-200 AF-S, it
    autfocuses on that D5000 of yours. It was replaced by the Nikon 70-200 VRI
    though, but its pretty sharp still. Anything else you’ll do for a portriat?
    just wondering, thanks
