It can be I guess. I've seen some really nice shots with it. If I had the money I'd go with the 85mm since I wouldn't have to be so close to the person and I could get a better perspective. Plus the bokeh effect is wayy nicer! I love the roundness of the background instead of the hexagons. But like I said, I can't afford a good 85mm lens. The Nikon 85mm 1.4D would be nice but for now a 50mm will do the job. Sort of.
