Digital camera reviews of Nikon 50mm f/1.8D AF Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras

Digital camera Review: So nice
Summary: 5 Stars

This lens is a true great buy. The dof is amazing and everything in focus is so crisp. I was shooting (using the kit lens) the other day, and I ended up pulling out this lens because the Lighting was so bad in the gym. My shutter went from 1/60 to 1/150! This lens is also great for portraits and I even use it for mountain biking. It is super light, and a really great extra tool to have. Plus, how can you go wrong at only $130?

Digital camera Review: Beyond Perfection
Summary: 5 Stars

I purchased this 50mm f/1.8 prime lens when I bought my Nikon D90 DSLR. I wasn't quite sure what to expect, given that you "zoom with your feet" so to get the photo you want, you physically move to the spot necessary to frame the shot as desired. I absolutely adore this lens. Lightweight, small, produces precise, crisp photos and lovely bokeh. My family traveled across 4 countries in 3 weeks this summer and I brought the Nikon D90, the kit lens that came with the camera, and this lens. I wound up using the 50mm f/1.8 almost every day! I switched to the other lens only to take photos of large buildings that were fairly close to me for example (in other words, using the 50mm, I wouldn't be able to get the entire building in the frame). My subjects include our garden, our kids, our dog, architecture, fabric. The Sony D90 with this lens captures indoor subjects with natural light unbelievably well. Good luck with this lens, you will be thrilled with it!

Digital camera Review: 50mm 1.8D Nikkor AF
Summary: 4 Stars

My favorite lens its picture quality and compact size.
In a DX camera you will be looking into a 75mm 1.8; You couldn't find a better portrait lens!!

Build quality is below average. The lens barrel feels plasticky and flimsy - the "Made in China" tag seems to explain all.
Fortunately the picture quality seems pretty good.

At this price - this is a steal!!

Digital camera Review: The Best Value Lens You Can Buy
Summary: 5 Stars

There are no words to describe how much better my pictures got after using this lens

If you're an amateur, and need a lens to focus on the subject and leave the rest of the photo slightly out of focus....you need this lens

the depth of field is great, low light shots are great, and for around 120 bucks, what's not to love??

Digital camera Review: Great lens for day to day usage
Summary: 4 Stars

We were looking for a lens that would allow day to day pics with good quality. We bought this based one of our friends loving it. It does take getting used to (for the amateur like me) when you come from a lens that allows zooming. But the pics are great. We used it at a baptism and you get amazing shots. We use it on our D70s. The lens is small, light and perfect for day to day usages. I would recommend this lens as it is an excellent lens for the money it costs.
