  • Fantabulous!
*: Black
I have a side business as a freelance photographer, doing production photography, headshots weddings, & art. And I gotta say, this is a fantabulous lens, plain & simple. I honestly don't see why some people are dumping on this lens! I admit, I haven't used the Sigma 50mm f1.4 (which must be huge & heavy, which I don't want), or anything comparable from other manufacturers, but I couldn't be happier. I did have the older 50mm AF-Nikkor f1.4 D, which was great, but I sold it-for good money-and got this version, despite the opinions that one shouldn't. I've been using this new version for about a month now-including 2 paid freelance shoots-and don't regret it. Pros: 1) Image quality. Contrast, color reproduction & sharpness are superior. I was shocked at the amount of detail I've been capturing. 2) Awesome in low light-how can it not be at f1.4?. 3) Smooth, quiet autofocus. Autofocus is noticeably slower than the AF-D model, but for most situations where you'd be using a prime lens I think it's fine. Plus it's nice when you're photographing a singer up close, trying to be intimate & keep her comfortable, to not have the "buzz" of the old screwdriver-focused lens. 4) Autofocus with manual override. If AF isn't working (like in low light) just hold the shutter button down half-way & turn the focusing ring. This is the way Nikon lenses are being designed nowadays, & that's a good thing! 5) Bokeh. Despite the negative reviews, I like the bokeh I get at wider apertures. Which was one of the reasons I wanted it-the 9 blade rounded diaphragm should be better for background blur than the straight, 7-blade diaphragm of the older model. I'm thinking it helps that I shoot on a camera with a DX sensor, so if you have a D700, D3, D3x, or 35mm film you might get different results. Otherwise, you should not be disappointed. 6) Ergonomics. It just has a really good feel to me. 7) Almost true internal focusing. The lens barrel doesn't change length while focusing, so you can hold onto any part of the lens & focus. 8) Hood. Comes with a nice bayonet hood, easy to put on and off, unlike the AF-D model, for which you need to separately purchase a screw-on rubber hood. 9) Forward compatibility. The only Nikon 50mm lens that will autofocus on the Nikon D40, D40x, D60, D3000, & D5000, which require lenses with their own focusing motors. Cons: Very few of significance. 1) Manual focusing. It works well, & the ability to override autofocus without flicking a switch is great, but I find the focusing ring a little harder to handle than on the older model. This model is larger overall, leading to a larger focusing ring (& filter), and my hands are a little small-ish, so that could be why. But this isn't a major factor if you use autofocus most/all of the time. The ring on this lens also feels tighter to me-which could be both a good & bad feature. 2) Larger filter size-58mm vs. the old, common 52. Only an issue if you already have 52mm filters and would have to get new ones for this lens. If you have multiple lenses with different filter sizes, try to just get one size of most filters and use a step-up ring. 3) Slower autofocus-but see above, not a major problem in my view. 4) Price. Pretty expensive at approximately $450.00, but it's actually not as bad as it looks. If you use a hood, like I do, then you don't have to buy one separately. It also comes with a nice carrying case-not essential, but a good touch. 5) Backward compatibility. Will not work on the older film cameras, because it lacks an aperture ring. Probably won't matter to most people. The older 50mm Nikon f1.4 AF-D is terrific. This version is even terrific-er. All I can say is, if you need a terrific-er 50mm lens: Go for it! ... show more

  • Very nice 50mm
*: Black
Very well-made lens and takes excellent pictures with my D700. Price: Its priced right in my opinion, you can get them from anywhere from 400 to close to 500 dollars. It's absolutely worth $500, but I wouldn't pay more than that. Image quality: This is where I find it excels the most. Slightly soft and glowy at 1.4, but that's to be expected. Gets quite sharp at f2. The Sigma and the other Nikon 50mm is even softer wide open compared to this lens, so if wide-open sharpness is important to you, then this is your lens. Bokeh: Its very nice. Some "experts"; say its a little to harsh or jittery looking but bokeh is subjective. I love should single subjects wide up outdoors with this lens and having that wonderful dreaminess surrounding the subject. Its not like the Nikkor 85mm 1.4D but it has its own thing going for it. Focusing: A little sluggish but precise. At 1.4, the depth of field is extremely thin, so focusing just isn't possibly going to be spot-on every time unless you stabilize your subject and your camera. Most amateurs won't notice if things are slightly out of focus, so not generally a problem unless you're a perfectionist. Low-light performance: Stellar performance. This is really why I bought this lens. I love this lens for events where I have room to move around because I hate using flash if it's not necessary. This lens and a slight ISO boost is all you need to take flash-free pictures in many settings. Amazing for weddings and indoor concerts. Build quality: Good. Not like Nikon's professional-grade lenses, but very sturdy - I can't foresee any possible problems. The plastic hood is a twist-on bayonet type, and it works well. Very pleased with this lens. If your a sharpness nympho then check out [...] and look for the review and graph of this lens. Its a stellar lens and even beats out some of Canon's $$$$ lenses in sharpness. ... show more
