Digital camera reviews of Nikon 50mm f/1.8D AF Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras
Digital camera Review: Amazing Portrait Lens!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this after it was recommended to me by a friend. It is a very fast lens and great for portrait photography! I will warn you though that you will want to step down to f2.2 as the f1.8 can be a little soft. It can also be a little too tight on a DX camera for indoor photography (you'll have to have room to back up). Overall, it is a great lens and a steal at this price!Digital camera Review: Amazing and affordable lens!
Summary: 5 Stars
The Nikon 50mm f/1.8 lens is an amazing lens! I cannot really add too much more than has already been said... just my 2 cents:
Pros:
1. Great in low light situations
2. Very sharp pictures
3. Fast (f/1.8)
4. Great for portraits
5. Light weight
6. Less than $100!
7. Excellent lens to learn on!
Cons:
1. Auto focus can be a little slow
2. 75mm equivalent (given 1.5x multiplier on D70s)
Digital camera Review: Amazing how much better my indoor pictures are
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this knowing I needed a good indoor lens. I knew going in that my D40X wouldn't autofocus with this lens, but that is easily resolved by taking a few extra pictures. For double the price I am not sure the f/1.4D is worth it as I can't imagine the pictures would come out any better.
Pros:
Amazing pictures
Auto Focus will work on the D80 and above
Cons:
Auto-focus will not work on D40, D40X or the D60.
Digital camera Review: Amazing lens at an Amazing price
Summary: 5 Stars
For any user of Nikon DSLRs this is almost a no brainer to purchase. TACK SHARP. Amazing Depth of Field when used at 1.8. Amazing amounts of light gathering. Fits very tightly on my D80. Focusing is a bit loud when compared to other quiet focusing motors. Good body construction. How can you explain not having it in your bag for that price?Digital camera Review: Amazing lens for the price!
Summary: 5 Stars
If you've been thinking about getting this lens, get it now.[...].
I have a D40, so I have to focus it. I do like that I have to focus, because it makes me work a little harder to achieve amazing pics. Once it's in focus, it does a great job of capturing some very sharp pictures. As mentioned before, it performs very well in low light and it's very fast. I definitely recommend this lens!
