Review on 📷 Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.4G Lens with Auto Focus: Perfect for Nikon DSLR Cameras by Siu Kim ᠌

I bought it in a Nikon store about five years ago at a space (for them) discount for about 12 thousand. Taking into account the jump in the rate, it’s about the same as now for 24-25 thousand to take (as it costs at a minimum on the Market). With its pros. In skillful hands, it can take very artistic photos due to the shallow depth of field. It is also good with a clear lack of light (aperture 1.4 - more than almost any "zoom"). The picture is good, with the right focus, everything is sharp and some kind of "warm-live". It weighs very little, which is important for those who have not pumped their hands under heavy lenses like (my main one) 24 - 120 / 4G zoom . Its cons: Immediately I say - writes NUB. I never took photography seriously, studying carefully the possibilities and limitations of lenses. Therefore - about the shortcomings for the noob and only the noob. 1. This is a fix, that is, there is no approach-removal in principle. We noobs are accustomed to zoom. Yes, you can "zoom with your feet" - but, say, for a city 50 mm is too much. Most of the streets do not allow you to take a picture of the house opposite - it does not fit into the frame . And when there is a need to zoom in on something, you just have to crop the picture - and it's good if there is enough sharpness for this. 2. Very shallow depth of field at maximum aperture. On the one hand, it looks cool when the focus is successfully reduced. On the other hand, in group portraits, this gives a stable epic fail - half of the faces are in focus, half are not, although the difference in distance is less than a meter. Accustomed to smartphones with exorbitant depths of field, it will be oh how unusual. Well, to clamp the diaphragm - it is necessary, for starters, to be able to do it. 3. Very often mistaken in focusing, which, with a shallow depth of field, leads to sad consequences. Perhaps this is the fault of the camera (D750). But I often focus on the background instead of, for example, a dancer. Yes, I'm a noob, and no, manually adjusting the focus practically does not help. Bottom line: to use, you need to learn. If you are NOT ready to study, read something or ask someone for tips for mastering, it is better to take any zoom lens (if you have enough money, then 24 - 120 is the best, IMHO)
