 great lens if you dont mind manual focus September 27, 2006
3 out of 17 found this review helpful
I'm not a pro photographer. I bought the nikon d70 that came with the lens. I was pretty happy with it, but I felt I need more flexibility in low light conditions. so i bought this lens. so from a 3.5 to a 1.8, i was able to shoot in a faster speed in low light conditions. the only problem i had with this was that automatic focus kinda sucked. compared to the other lens, this was pretty loud when automatic focus was turned on. for some pictures AF didnt work so i had to trun to manual focus. not completely happy but for about 100 bucks i guess its worth it
The most versatile lens you'll own. August 17, 2006

This lens is amazingly versatile. At f/1.8 it's fast enough for available light shooting, and is sharp enough wide open to use at that aperture. Its focal length is perfect for portraits on a camera with a 1.5X crop factor. It's small enough to make a compact camera when weight and size is important. With an extension tube or reversing ring, this Nikkor makes a great close-up lens, too. Yet, this lens costs in the $100 range. It's a bargain that performs superbly. Every Nikon photographer should own one.

I am a newbie to the world of DSLR's, and this was the first lens that I bought to compliment my Nikon D50 kit. I find that I use this lens far more than the 18-55mm that comes with the D50 kit, has a faster focus and slightly sharper image. For the record, my main photo subject is my 16-month old toddler, so I tend to be more of a portrait-oriented amateur photographer. For the money, it's hard to beat.
Fantastic! August 8, 2006

I am in love with this lens! I bought a D50 with the 28-80 kit lens. I was talked into buying the 50mm lens by friends who are real photographers. I am blown away by how much sharper the 50mm lens is. It is super fast. You can shoot indoors without the flash. I highly recommend it.
