By P. J. Menter
I've paired the AF Nikkor f1.8 50mm with a Nikon D300 giving a lens of roughly 85mm focal length and the combination is superb. The auto focussing and exposure operation are faultless. The body of the lens is plastic but the mount engagement and lens retaining parts are all metal. The focal lengths and f-stops are neatly painted onto the plastic barrel; with a lot of use these are likely to wear off eventually but at the low price for this lens that's a minor niggle.
There's a small slider switch on the body that allows fixing or releasing of the f-stop ring, its default position is f22 for automatic operation. On a modern digital its unlikely you'll find too much use for this but when operating fully manual it'll be just like an old mechanical camera, twist and shoot. The front lens element its heavily recessed in the mount so the chance of sun flare is very low without a lens hood. It comes with the superbly practical Nikon lens cap fitting into a 52mm screw mount.
Image quality and colour rendition are faultless - even if you have a zoom lens this is a great buy for portraits and getting out and about all day long with a lightweight combo that doesn't give you shoulder ache
By Mr. G. Bridgeman-clarke (Rayleigh UK)
Everyone had a 50mm lens on their film cameras and everyone underestimated how useful it was and it ended up in the cupboard. With digital cameras all of a sudden the 50mm lens is back in vogue and seen to be an excellent and very useful addition at a reasonable cost to anybodies camera bag.
I bought this lens a minth or so ago and on the downside its plastic but the advantages outweigh that. Its light, sharp and a great price. I use it for portrat work on my D3 but also on my D300 iyt becomes a great portrait lens with the equivilent focal length of 75mm. Very versitile.
Ok I would love to have the f1.4 but at over twice the price, its not as good value for money as this little gem.
By Mr. D. Arrowsmith
In my view every Nikon DSLR owner should have either this or the f1.4 in his/her camera bag. The f1.8 is small,light and inexpensive and gives super image quality as well as the ability to shoot in low light without flash or other forms of studio or off camera lighting. It is ideal for portraits although some may consider it too sharp. It is a very sharp lens and some ladies may not like to have their little skin flaws exposed. I find a little Gaussian blur in Photoshop fixes that. A very nice lens well recommended.

I ordered the lens on a Saturday evening to replace the one I had been using as i had just returned from my daughters wedding and had dropped my camera on the floor breaking my lens . The lens was delivered to me on the following Wednesday morning , not a bad turn around I thought .I was very pleased with the lens and the service that I received . I knew what I needed to know before ordering as this was a replacement lens
By Anthony Coia (Scotland)
Apologies for the late review. Item delivered promptly in very good condition.
Excellent item and very good transaction,
Thanks
By Lanceyboy (Herts, UK)
Needed a lens to replace one that I had just dropped (doh!). This looked like the latest version of the one that was now broken. It arrived very quickly and does everything the old lens did, so I can't fault it. I'm a lazy camera user and nearly always leave the settings on auto and as this lens was for a Nikon D50, I've not found any problems with using it. I just hope I don't drop it.....

Have been using this with Nikon D90. The lens seems to have trouble focusing. For indoor photos without the flash, only around 1 in 20 turn out ok. The rest are blurred and/or grainy. The lens is much better for outdoor daylight shots or indoor using the flash but still no better than my £80 small zoom lens.
update 8.6.10-This lens has consistently let me down from the start. Most recent photos in daylight were terrible. I have altered my rating accordingly.
By The D Man (Surrey)
I bought this lens to upgrade from the 1.8 AF D. I wondered if there would be much difference, but I wasn't left wondering for long. This is an amazing lens, the DOF at 1.4 is superb as you'd expect, but at f/4 it's as sharp as you could want to see in a lens. The possibilities with this on your body are endless, it truly is an amazing piece of glass and well worth the money.
By Peter H (UK)
I bought this in my local camera shop, just before Christmas when these were hard to come by. It's not my first prime lens (since I've been taking photographs regularly for over 25 years) but it is my first "fast" one. When I researched it, comments seemed rather mixed, but I eventually decided to get it anyway. I'm using it with an FX-sensor body and can now confirm that it is SUPERB. Used carefully, wide open, it gives wonderful pictures with a razor-thin depth of field. Slightly stopped down (f2.0 - f2.4) it gives great isolation of the subject from the background, with excellent across-the-frame sharpness and no noticeable vignetting. I haven't experienced any problems with focus speed and it always seems to "nail" the focus in real-world use, even at very low light levels (i.e. no obvious back or front focusing issues on my sample!) It's well-made, light, small(-ish for a 50mm prime) and smooth and quiet in use.
Is it worth the money? I can't say - the premium over the 1.8D, or even the 1.4D, is steep (and getting steeper, it would seem.) Is it a joy to use? Yes. Does it nail the shot every time? Yes. Have I taken it off my camera body yet? No (and I do have some other very nice, but slower, lenses.) So, if you want to invest in a fast 50mm lens for Nikon and you have a body that handles "G" lenses, I can certainly recommend this one (although I understand it is not very good for architectural photography, but I can't imagine why you would buy this version for such an application anyway.)
By Happy Snapper (Cambridge, UK)
Bought this from Calumet alongside a D300 and 16-85 VR zoom, specifically for portraits of my young son. The 1.4 fast speed has been invaluable, together with quick focussing and the ability at faster apertures to blur backgrounds. This lens does all of that well, and the results have been stunning.
If you are looking for your first prime, you might (in the DX system) also look at the 35mm f1.8 as well, which is considerably cheaper. I've used both, and whilst there is not much to choose between them this 50mm edges it slightly, particularly in terms of sharpness at higher speeds.
Very Highly Recommended.
By M. C. PETER (Kiel)
Nikon and other optics manufacturers set the standards back in the 1960s, when the first commercially successful SLR cameras were launched. The 50mm or 55mm lens was the first standard - now called "prime" lens - which was generally supplied with the camera. However, and no matter how cheaply the first "prime" lenses were sold, they were normally provided in a less advantageous format than what was required by the so-called "discerning" photographer, or indeed by the professional.
So it was that, if you wanted a top-class lens, not only did the optical engineering have to be faultless, but the lens had to let in enough light for fast operation in the 60s available-light mode, fashionable and challenging as that was. Unless you pushed your Kodak Tri-X to 1600 ASA, you were not able to obtain indoor shots at such concerts as the MJQ at Leeds(1966)with much chance of success. Here's where the best lenses played their part.
With a maximum aperture of f 1.4, the Nikon 50 mm became a leader. This same focal length today, used with a digital SLR gives the near equivalent of the old 85mm standard portrait lens, but with f 1.4 aperture. Of course, it has been much improved since the good old days, and is worth absolutely every penny. A lens for every photographer worth his salt. Buy one now.

If you bought your first DSLR, you probably have a kit zoom lense or two, which is very convenient - at first. However, soon it actually becomes a limitation due to really tiny apertures even at the short end. This 50mm lense has the aperture of 1.4, which means more light, more flexibility, better bokeh and more. Stop it down to 1.8 and it's already quite sharp. At 2.8 it's super sharp.
In other words, it's a perfect portrait and general photography lense. You can do anything with it. Buy it. Or 50mm 1.8, if you don't have enough money, but you'll lose some sharpness and solid body (50mm 1.8 is plastic).
By Alison (Derbyshire, UK)
This is a wonderful lens which is great value for money. This is a great lens if you are making your first foray into prime lenses as it's such a good all rounder. If you are wondering whether to go for the 1.8 version of this lens and are not sure if the 1.4 is worth the extra - yes it is worth the extra! The gorgeous shallow depth of field, sharpness and great performance in low light make this lens a must. I am a professional wedding and portrait photographer and this lens is great for low light conditions, shallow dof shots of details and portraits.
By No worries (Sunbury)
I bought this lens to complement a Nikon 18-200 f3.5 to 5.6 zoom. It was not a cheap addition to my D80 kit but I had some help from a retirement collection! It is great to have an f1.4 for low light portrait work, or to use as a compact general lens. At the camera's choice of f2.8, when using portrait mode, it gives good depth of field control to blur the background nicely while giving very sharp primary images. It is small, light and less conspicuous compared with it's larger sibling. One just has to get used to moving about a bit to fill the viewfinder to best effect. I love it!

5 out of 5 for value for money.
Even if it is made in China, and the new AF-S G lens, as well as 35/1.8 and 50/1.8 creates a competitive environment, on FX it is still very, very good.
By Ferny4 (Uppermill, UK)
What a wee gem of a lense. It gives fast, sharp pictures even in very low light (room with just glow from TV in background). For the money and speed I would recommend this lense (above that of the f1.8D) as I generally want to have the best lense to do the job (otherwise knowing myself, I will be nagged with the thought that the f1.4 would have been netter). I know it is good, very good. I hope this helps
