Wonderful quality, one hundred percent satisfied!

Unless you're the unfortunate owner of one of the smaller, screwdriverless cameras, don't worry about buying an af-s-th fifty. Due to its compactness, this non-motorized one focuses just as quickly and accurately, but is much more versatile for both macro and film, and it also costs less than the motorized version, moreover.
If you are completely new and want to finally take the first fix in addition to the annoying whale zoom - take this one, there is nothing to think about. For this money, it gives phenomenal results and the opportunity to get one of the most popular focal lengths in your fleet of optics for almost nothing.

Pros

- Price-quality ratio; - For my taste, a very pleasant pattern and bokeh; - Compact, with a light block of movable lenses, which is why a screwdriver of any, even relatively cheap carcasses (where it is, of course) copes with focusing no slower and no worse than the built-in motor in af-s versions of fifty dollars; - He's not G-type, ie. it DOES have an aperture ring, and yes, I consider this a serious plus, because firstly, you can put the lens on classic film bodies (such as FE, FE2, FM, FM2, FM3a and a number of others) and through a special small window above the main field of the viewfinder you will see the aperture numbers printed on the ring in analog representation. Secondly, you can use a lens with non-chip macro rings or bellows (as opposed to the same half-length G). Thirdly - what the hell is not joking! - easily put it through an adapter on an enemy Kenon carcass, and if your adapter is cheap and not chipped, again you can change the value of the hole mechanically.

Cons

- Someone complains about the slight effect of "nuts" in the bokeh, which, of course, sometimes takes place. But as someone correctly put it, it would cost 5 times more, and its bokeh would not be called "nuts", but "a characteristic pattern for connoisseurs." I agree 100% - no need to invent reasons for stress from scratch. If you don’t look at the tests, but just shoot them, you won’t notice any nuts in real life on real plots; - Smoother case than older brothers, easy to leave a noticeable scratch. Corrugated cases with a large texture are certainly better in this sense. Otherwise, the plastic construction does not hover at all and does not affect the quality of the pictures.
