Review on Nikon AF-S Nikkor 50mm πŸ“· f/1.8G Lens: Exceptional Image Quality and Versatility by Kasem Thongnoi ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I am satisfied, the purchase is quite successful.

I bought a Nikon d5100 for the camera. On a cropped matrix, the focal length is 75 mm. For me it is quite convenient. Shows no signs of distortion. When shooting a face for the whole frame, there is no distortion (nosing) as on 35 mm DX-ce. Depth of field is just superb. The back blurs perfectly. With a frag of 1.8, of course, the sharpness is not 100%. But after a few sighting sessions, the photos come out of excellent quality. On light objects slightly chromate, but very weakly. I recommend it as a portrait lens on both DX and FX cameras! Although the panoramas come out well!

Pros
  • Depth of field! Lightweight, comfortable, bright. It has its own focus motor. Hood and case included.
Cons
  • It needs a protective filter, as it has such a design that the lens does not move inside, but outside when focusing. And dust can easily get under the edges of the lens.
