Customer Reviews

Nikon 50mm f/1.8
I have a grownig collection of lenses, including the great 18-200mm VR and 70-300mm VR lenses, yet the lens I use most of the time is the Nikon 50mm f/1.8 lens. It works exceptionally well on my D50 where it focusses fast and with auto ISO...I get very sharp images with the available light, without having to use the flash. It also works well on my F80 film camera. Every Nikon SLR owner should have one of these lenses in their bag. (There are auto-focus issues with D40, D40x and D60...but I believe you can focus manually even with these cameras for great results.)

Great Lens for the Price
This is a great lens for such a discounted price. I only used zoom lenses before the purchase of this lens. The depth of field is awsome on this lens. Of course on the Nikon D40 (D40x and D60)the lens does not autofocus because this particular camera does not have in-body focus ability. It took a few shots before I could perfect focusing but once I did that I loved it. If you can deal with having to actually exercise while taking pictures then this lens is for you.

Great little lens...
This is an excellent lens for the price. It takes incredibly clear pictures and is great for low light situations.
