I had never even heard of something like this until I saw it called for in a recipe. Do people actually use this? I am not buying a jar of it when you need 2 tablespoons for a recipe. Looking at the ingredients, there’s no chili in it—it’s just ketchup with onion and garlic flavor. I will just doctor up some ketchup. Why so much of it on the shelves?

Cluze,

@cs

To my knowledge, it is only ever used in recipes.

Yes, it is pretty much just doctored ketchup, but I have a sloppy joe recipe that uses it. It is the only thing I use it in, but I keep a bottle just for that one recipe.

Cluze,

Can you expand a bit on what about the 50 f/1.8 Z you find lacking compare to the other 50's you mention. Is is the 1.8 vs. 1.4? Do you find the bokeh not as pleasing? Is it just to clinical?

While I have several zooms that cover the 50mm range, the only 50 mm that I use much is the Nikon 50mm f/1.8 G. It is tiny, cheap, and gives results that are good enough for me. But I am really just a hobbyist, not a professional. I have never had the opportunity or need to shoot any of the 1.4 or 1.2 50's from Nikon.

I also just recently picked up the 40mm f/2. Not a 50, I recognize, but still small, light, and so far pretty decent. I admit that I haven't shot much with it yet. I do hope to pick up the 50mm f/1.8 z at some point, so I would like to hear more of your thoughts about it.

Cluze,

Hello Jon, and thank you for making this magazine. I, too, am coming from r/Nikon and was hoping someone had set one up over here!
