A supremely lightweight lens that offers the more economical f/1.8 aperture(compared to the 50mm f/1.4 D), yet still retains the great advantages of the D distance technology. Ideal for scenery or full-length portraits. Weighs just 0.34 lb, making it great for travel while still offering excellent low light gathering properties. Stops down to f/22 for wonderful control of depth of field. Accepts 52mm filters and the HR-2 lens hood.

Revisiting the Nikon 50mm f/1.8D AF in the digital era.
| Author's Rating: |
|
Pros: Very sharp throughout its range, fast focus, inexpensive, compact, light, reasonably durable.
Cons: Manual focus ring and aperture ring are poorly dampened. Otherwise, no cons for the price.

Thanks to the 1.5X crop factor of Nikon digital SLRs, this lens has come alive for me again - razor sharp, fast, light, compact, very inexpensive.

Pros: Lightweight, small, very sharp, bright and a bargain to boot.
Cons: None I can think of.

A great bargain in a normal lens. A Sharp, clear lens that won't break the bank (or your neck when mounted on a NIKON body).

This performance for under $100 is a no-brainer
| Author's Rating: |
|
Pros: Sharpness and contrast, price, better build than equivalent Canon lens
Cons: Bokeh is kinda rough, f/1.8 is too soft for use, lots of plastic
Bottom Line:
I'd love to be the one to say NOT to buy it, but seriously - for under $100 you'd be silly not too. Every photographer should carry one.
