Which has better Bokeh? 50mm or 35mm 1.8 nikon lens? - 1

Both lens i found are 200 bucks on sale

i'm worried that 50mm would have a tight field of view

i'm considering the 35mm too but not sure which one to go for.

I saw both at the store and the 50mm looks more up to date in terms of build and design but obviously it comes down to the photo.

my main reason for a prime lens is to shoot with blurred backgrounds, especially of friends and family during parties.

i've read mixed reviews online, howver it seemed the 35mm seems more " popular" but canon doesn't even have a 35mm prime.

what do you guys think?

The background blur you want comes from a shallow depth of field. The lower the f stop, the shallower the depth of field, the more blurred your background The quality of that blur, or bokeh is more difficult to determine, stats alone won't tell you. The best way to determine this for yourself, is to bring your camera to the shop and try each of the lenses to see which gives you the image you prefer. One other thing to consider is the focal lengths of 50mm and 35mm. 35mm is a bit wide, in my opinion, for pictures of people unless you only want to focus on larger groups. To get only one person in the frame you'll have to get very close, which can make things difficult if you're trying to do candid shots.

How many times are you going to ask this?

Canon doesn't have a 35mm prime? Ahh! The one stuck on the front of my 450D must be a fake!

Full frame or APS-C sensor?
50mm is pretty tight on an APS-C sensor - that is why I went 35mm.

"Bokeh" is very subjective - try both lenses and decide which bokeh you like best.
