Default Nikkor 50mm f/1.8 AF-D

Just a brief test at f/1.8 and f/4. Can you tell which is which? I'm really impressed with the wide open sharpness of this lens, makes it completely usable. Center crop at 100%, normal sharpening settings in camera.

But of course, the DOF will be extremely shallow.

Yeah, the one on the right is the f/1.8. Very narrow DOF.

Oh wait, I need more close ups to see the bokeh, then can 'wokeh'.

But as I see it, thats quite a bit of F(ap)s already. Probably not enough though.
