Review on Nikon 50mm f/1.8D Lens: Perfect for Nikon DSLR Cameras! by Agata Buczkowska  (B ᠌

It is not appropriate to debate this, comrades. This is an absolute must. This Nikkor 50mm 1.8 lens is the fix that every amateur photographer needs to have in their bag. Light, brilliant, and sharp, while also being lovely and affordable. Capturing images in dimly lit environments or indoors is a fun challenge. After switching to 18-105mm, a significant improvement can be seen in the images. Before buying, I doubted taking Nikkor 50mm 1.8 or 50mm 1.4 (Nikon or Sigma). There is definitely a distinction, and I won't deny that it exists; nevertheless, it's not the kind of distinction that warrants a premium of two or even three times the original price. Particularly if you do not consider yourself to be a professional photographer but rather an amateur photographer. Currently, I have limited my shooting to only for him. It transforms into a glass for everyday use, although you won't be able to take landscape photos with it because you'll need a zoom for that. The price should continue to drop after the introduction of the new AF-S 50mm 1.8 variant (which comes with an integrated motor), but in 2022, something is occurring quite smoothly instead of as expected. By the way, the only significant change between the previous model and the one being sold today is found in the vehicle's engine. Indeed, the material and construction are of higher grade, and the overall structure is more robust. Indeed, autofocus has become both less noisy and quicker over the years. Yet, this does not have any impact on the overall quality of the picture. So, we may chalk it up to marketing. It would appear that Nikon's marketers have finally recognized the issue with the absence of a suitable solution for the screwdriverless carcasses of the D40, D60, D3000, and D5000 cameras. In the past, the Nikkor 35mm 1.8 was the only lens option for photographing these carcasses.
