- Perfect go-to lens!I was a hardcore landscape photographer and didn't really have interest in portrait photography, but I decided that I needed another lens and bought this one. It wasn't long before I was booking portrait gigs! This lens has paid for itself 20x over! I was recently thinking of getting the new Sigma 50MM 1.4 Art lens, but I'm not sure it would be able to replace my Nikon *Nifty Fifty* Highly recommend! I shoot with a D750 and only have 2 other lenses - Nikkor 28-300 (Swiss Army knife of lenses) and a Sigma 12-24 (Another great lens for the price!
- Yes, It's That Good!Everyone needs a good prime lens. This is an affordable, super sharp and lightweight lens that does well in low light situations. The "nifty fifty" is the staple of all time go-to lenses. On a DX camera it is actually more like a 75mm so you may opt for the 35mm lens, which equates to 52.5mm, if you want to be closer to your subject. Both the 50mm 1.8 and 35mm 1.8 are very nice lenses that can yield sharp, professional quality results. The first 50mm I had was the D model, the predecessor to this one, and I couldn't believe what I had been missing out on! The lens inspired me to take more photos and get more creative. This lens is well worth the relatively small investment.
- Amazing lens and valueThis super-light lens has amazing clarity and operation. It took me just one minute to shoot some flowers at f1.8 in my kitchen with beautiful, smooth bokeh, and to manually focus to make it perfect, all this for under $200? This is an incredible value and highly recommended. Color saturation is also spectacular. Perfect for portraits, candid shots and general use. Very fast focusing also.
- Nikkor Primes Rock!I love this lens on my D5600. I had become lazy with shooting with zoom lenses on my camera for their convenience. I was really missing out on some fantastic photos before using this lens. It is sharp, sharp, sharp! I can shoot in low light conditions that none of my zooms could ever work in. This lens and the 35mm f/1.8 have completely sold me on Nikon prime lenses. Thanks Nikon!
