The bokeh is wonderful. Pictures are very crisp and sharp. Nice fast lens to have... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~410028117636 Sat, 8 Dec 2007 04:45:58 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_410028117636?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_406850145924?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tomstainer - Considered by many film photographers to be an essential tool in any camera bag, 50mm lenses have always seemed to have a good reputation – and the Nikon 50mm 1.8D AF is a fine addition to that line up. In the world of digital, the old style 50mm –... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~406850145924 Thu, 1 Nov 2007 18:03:32 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_406850145924?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_376660594308?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rbr28 - This is a must have lens. The lens can be had for around $100, and I've yet to see any Nikon lens that can produce similar image quality, for anywhere near this price. Most DSLR beginners will end up with slow zoom lenses that will handicap even the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~376660594308 Fri, 15 Jun 2007 14:23:30 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_376660594308?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_341331906180?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jvandegr - Introduction Nikon and Canon have long offered a fast 50mmm lens. Over the years, these have been available as manual focus lenses, autofocus lenses, and with apertures as wide as f/1.2. Nikon's 50mm f/1.8D AF has long been considered one of... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~341331906180 Sun, 1 Apr 2007 16:04:48 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_341331906180?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_247052734084?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author reitzphoto - fabulous lens. you'll love it. i promise. i don't think it's left my camera body in 3 months.

But I've always enjoyed my copy of the Nikon 50mm f/1.8 D, so why not share? Specs of this little jewel are as... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~221409087108 Tue, 21 Feb 2006 02:50:35 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_221409087108?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_215146335876?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author uniq - I had previously passed over the thought of writing a review about this lens. Mostly, it seemed that everyone else had already said everything that needed to be said. Over the weekend I pulled out this little gem and for the 100th time this year I put it... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~215146335876 Sat, 24 Dec 2005 09:12:14 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_215146335876?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_214695775876?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tomstachura - When I took my new 50mm 1.8 out of the box, I was surprised that it was made in China. First, I thought that Nikon quality assurance would resolve any issues. When I was mounting the lens, I noticed though that the fitting is very tied compared to the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~214695775876 Tue, 20 Dec 2005 11:54:01 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_214695775876?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_182422179460?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gregepin04 - The Nikon (Nikkor) 50mm 1.8D AF lens is quite a bargain. I shoot professionally and this has been a very strong performer. The lightweight design may give it the appearance of an inferior product, but if you compare results side by side with the far more... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~182422179460 Fri, 6 May 2005 23:15:17 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_182422179460?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_162268745348?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bogrod - This 50mm f/1.8 offering from Nikon is just about the best bargain that Nikon offers on their lens lineup. $99 USD will buy you an extremely useable lens in many, many photographic situations. I own a number of 50mm Nikkors, but this one has to be my... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~162268745348 Fri, 19 Nov 2004 19:56:05 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_162268745348?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_87507701380?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author colonialpara - This lens is the newest generation of the venerable Nikon autofocus 50mm f1.8 that was one of the first AF lenses offered by Nikon. This lens, which upgrades the previous version's already impressive sharpness, adds the "D" technology that provides... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~87507701380 Mon, 20 Jan 2003 15:48:53 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_87507701380?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_77272419972?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author roger1250 - The Nikon AF Nikkor 50mm 1.8D is the replacement for the Nikon AF Nikkor 50mm 1.8 that has been in production since 1985. Anybody that is familiar with Nikon lenses knows that Nikon's 'D' lenses (the 'D' stands for Distance, this means the lens takes the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~77272419972 Thu, 3 Oct 2002 18:08:02 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_77272419972?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_64559484548?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paulphoto - Nowadays, when zooms are the norms, a fixed-focal-length lens is often overlooked. At a price of well under $100, this AF Nikkor 50mm f/1.8 can knock all the variable aperture zooms (particularly in the range 35-70mm, 28-80mm, 28-70mm) off their feet!... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~64559484548 Mon, 20 May 2002 16:13:20 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_64559484548?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_48784117380?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rxit - When I decided to purchase a fixed (non-zooming) lens for my camera, the most common salesperson response to my inquiry for the 50mm lens was “what do you want that for? Everyone has gone to a zoom now-a-days.” Well in answer to that question I would... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~48784117380 Thu, 6 Dec 2001 23:08:29 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_48784117380?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_12962008708?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rmansell - After using my brother's old Nikon with some zooms, I finally bought my own about 3.5 years ago, with the Nikon 50 1.8, and a Tamron 28-200. I sold the Tamron about 2 years ago, and have just used the 50mm since then. I would recommend it to anyone:... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~12962008708 Tue, 13 Mar 2001 17:19:54 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_12962008708?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/elec-review-6893-3057EB48-3A15D023-prod3?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author henryy - This is the must have lens! We probably all started our photo career with a 50mm on an old body at some point in time. And there is good reason for that. The fact that this lens is the closest in perspective as your eyes is a major plus. Major plus, in... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~747276 Fri, 17 Nov 2000 21:51:45 GMT http://www.epinions.com/elec-review-6893-3057EB48-3A15D023-prod3?linkin_id=8003929
