Review on Nikon FX NIKKOR 58mm f/1.4G Lens - Enhanced for Nikon DSLR Cameras by Ae Ra ᠌

The lens is made, unlike the professional line to which it belongs, from composite materials, which, yes, are tough, but still do not belong to iron. This is a new "fifty kopeck" as an adequate balance for the Canon 50 / 1.2 - they are the same in sharpness, and the bokeh is similar. The picture at the exit from the glass is already ready: it behaves perfectly both in the backlight and in the studio (apparently, nanotechnologies still rule here). Chromaticity is not absent, especially on open holes, but still less than the classic 50 / 1.4. Very sharp pictures are already obtained at 1.4, as befits pro-optics, no soap, but quite harsh sharpness comes at f / 2, and almost does not differ from f / 4, except for the depth of field. Does not smear with autofocus, behaves decently. For show off, they added volume to it - the plastic cone-shaped protrusion, on which the focusing ring is located, does not implement other tasks, unfortunately, and simply adds one and a half centimeters in length and some amount of thickness, which can be seen from the largest lens (front). But there is a lens hood that immediately refers you to pro-photographers, and the lens itself will add show-off, so the glass will become a necessary accessory for the Nikon D800E for those who like to show off, so that loser photographers salivate.
