Nikon 85mm f/1.8G AF-S

This is a great little lens for the money. Yes, it's 2/3 of a stop slower than its big brother, the Nikon 85 f/1.4G, but it's a little smaller and lighter and certainly less expensive. While it's not quite as sharp, it's a fun lens to shoot and great in those low light situations. Try this out along with it's big brother to see which one is right for you.
