Avg. Rating:

An affordable Nikkor that combines the ease of autofocus operation with advanced Nikon optics. Ideal for scenery or full-length portraits. Through a 50mm lens subjects viewed with the camera appear about the same size as when viewed with the human eye, which is one of the reasons why 50mm lenses are called normal. Weighs only 5.1 ounces. Stops down to f/22 for additional depth of field control.

Here is what people are saying about the Nikon 50mm f/1.8D AF Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras
5 Star Rating  "Perfect lens for a photographer on a budget"2009-11-02
- Reviewed By User: A62B55P1JZD5O
So this lens is rather simple, but you have to know what you are getting. It's a prime lens, so no zoom. It's got no internal motor so no AF on D40-D60 and the like. However, I've found it to be a very fast lens, and focusing manually is just something that requires practice. I would just advise that you plan on moving around ALOT if you are thinking of using this lens for landscapes and anything other than macro or portraits. I use it for live music in a dark environment, and the composition is a little tough seeing as you have to move around, but thems the breaks. Focusing wide open at F/1.8 it a bit tough, but you'd really only encounter that if you have very little light, and you dont want to use a flash. Also the DOF at that point is really small, so that's why I could only imagine someone using it for macro. If you are looking for quality at a lower price, you found it. You will only run into problems if you ask this lens to do more than it's designed to do. Do your research, and be honest about what you want to do with this lens. If you do that you will find happiness, and perhaps photographic enlightenment in this lens.

Simply the best bang for your buck. This is an absolute steal at $100. Looks and performs like it should cost 10X more.
 
4 Star Rating  "Good lense at a decent price."2009-10-24
- Reviewed By User: A391ENXNTMIWSD
I decided to purchase this prime lense after seeing so much positive reviews from the pro to amateur alike.
First, about the purchasing experience.
The original box has so many scrubbed marks and seems old. Is this a used item or a refurbished? I ordered as new item!!! The lense looks ok.
Second, about picture quality.
As a fast lense, it allows to take pictures in low light condition without using flash and camera can be hand held. Pictures are sharp, however, when wide open the DOF is shallow, one might mistaken blurred images are caused by poor quality lense.
I like this lense so far, since it stays on the camera more often than my other lense, Nikon 18-200mm VR.
 
5 Star Rating  "Very small and powerfull lens"2009-10-14

Well this tiny lens is very powerfull and pictures it take are very sharp. Im very happy with this lens. You can blur the background very easy with it...and much more..
 
5 Star Rating  "The greatest lens ever"2009-10-13
- Reviewed By User: A1LQ5P0AY0Z6XB
This lens is pure awesome. Although i have a d60 and cannot use it for auto focus, the nifty 50 has made me experience and enjoy and become good at manual focusing, which is something every photographer should be capable of.

I highly recommend every nikon dslr owner out there to have this lens
 
5 Star Rating  "Wonderful lens! Just get it!!"2009-10-02
- Reviewed By User: A2XUZWYEI76I04
I'm a big fan of what I call the "blurred" background pictures - subjects in sharp focus, with the rest of the background as blurred out as possible. Of course, you have to overcome the challenges of working with a small Depth of Field (DoF). I also love snapping candids of my kids, many a times, in sub-optimal light conditions. This lens is terrific for both of these purposes.

Some reviews were negative about Autofocus,but it worked just fine, out of the box (didn't have to change any setting, or set any locks on the lens - just snapped it on as is) on to my D70 - note, some Nikon consumer SLRs will not autofocus with this lens.

I thought for quite a while about the Nikon 50mm f/1.4D AF Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras, but the price difference doesn't seem to justify it. Getting to shoot around 1.8 is good enough for me (remember - DoF becomes that much more challenging when you go down to 1.4).

If you're a zoom addict, remember that there isn't any zooming on this. You will have to move yourself to get the right picture composition (or crop later).

I shot a good set with my kids and also on some religious figurines at a friend's house (see customer image of Lord Ganesha) - love what I see.

This is a great complement to my Nikon 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 G ED-IF AF-S VR [Vibration Reduction] DX Lens. Enjoy!
