That's why I went with the 35mm first, I have a DX so with sensor crop it's right around 50mm true. Zdayz 2014!!

A lot of weddings I used to shoot I liked using 35. Now I hate weddings and never want to do them again lmao!

I have the 50mm 1.8g and I love using this lens for portraits and even as a walk around lens on my D7k. At wide open, even on a sunny day, it takes amazing shots and really nice bokeh. A bit cumbersome for group shots on a crop sensor body, but it's perfect for a lot of situations. The distortion is very minimal and the focal length being close to what your eye sees is very intuitive when it comes to framing a shot. I also have the 85mm, but sadly, I don't use it as much as I'd like to. I got it mainly because my next camera will be full frame.

Yeah full frame is on my list. The D5100 is actually my wife's, I got it for her for a Christmas present but she hardly ever uses it and doesn't even know how to change aperture or iso lol. She just likes to leave it on auto.

Chromatic Aberration, the very annoying color fringing around objects, prevalent in lower end prime lenses. My 50 and 85 do it to a sharp degree from 1.8-2.8, but I always shoot raw so its moot to me. On your last pic, look close at the rope and you can see purple fringing. Still a cool shot nonetheless!

thanks for pointing it out guys, I didn't notice it before or I would have fixed it in lightroom. I think I have a button for that lol.
