Dave, thank you for that I appreciate the help. I am currently working on taking shots with my 18-55 lens set to 50mm to see how I get on. If this goes well then I can think about which 50 prime to get. I also like to mess about with macro so I may end up sticking with the lens I have and looking at a macro lens. My missus wont let me spend a lot on lenses :-(
Here are a couple which I think are ok and at least match the Fuji. Wallace & Gromet have had a little pp but the batteries are SOOC. The battery shot was also looking at DoF.
Manual, f/11, 1/160 sec, ISO 200, 50mm, TT560 Speedlight and Pringles Snoot set at 1/64
Manual, f/8, 1/160 sec, ISO 200, 50mm, TT560 Speedlight set at ? (Can't remember)
