Light, sharp lens for my Nikon F100. Autofocus works well too, what's not to love?

It is hard to get a bad 50 mm lens. Very please with this one, I use mostly for portrait photografy.

I needed a prime lens to take photos with out flash in low light conditions. did not want to spend a lot of money. ( saving up for that nikkor 200-500mm ) did a test shot of a humming bird not bad . the lens will do what I want it for. good value.

I love the lens. Very comfortable and convenient to use and it works well. I ordered a new lens, but the box looks like it was a used one and no guarantee or instruction brochure were included.

I originally bought this when I had a D850 on order, but some things changed and I'm currently using a Z7 with an FTZ. While the AF doesn't work, it works amazing with focus peaking. This is an amazing cheap lens for anyone looking for a cheap 50mm, or looking to replace the 18-55 kit lenses that this will far surpass!

Great standard lens. I had only a week to use it but will review it later once I get a chance to use it more.

Works great, but not on auto for D5600

Low cost lens, light and small, great optics. Just the way camera lenses used to be before zooms.

I was happy to receive my lens so quickly. I am still learning how to use it but they also gave me a 90 day opportunity to access a professional regarding using my lens.

this is an awesome piece for portraits. gives a great bokeh. im only giving it 4 because i did not realize it was AF and i was looking at AF-S.

Great lens for the price! I am only a beginner and hobby photographer but it fit perfectly on my d3400 and I've been able to get some great shots with it. The open aperture lets in tons of light for darker shots and also allows for an excellent bokeh effect.

Good lens but later found it cheaper

Can’t comment on the lens because I bought the wrong one! Customer service was the best. We arranged for an easy return and credit refund. Then they recommended the correct lens and then took care of the purchase. No hassles, no frustrations...Everyone was professional and we even had some fun. I feel I purchased a quality product for a fair price.

I love this little nifty 50. Much better quality photos and low light capability than the kit lens. I love the small size too. It streamlines the size and weight of the D7200 making it much more comfortable to walk around with. This is a nice portrait lens for the DX format. I alternate between this and the 35mm prime for most of my shots.

Super sharp for an inexpensive lens. Used this lens or three years for print newspaper.

The image quality on my D750 is great. The auto focus isn't the fastest and it is a bit noisy, but for the price, it is an awesome lens. I have so far only used it indoors for pictures of my newborn son. F1.8 is not very sharp, but definitely usable.

This lens rocks for the money! I'm not a pro photographer, but I worked in a camera store for two years during college, and studied a year of 35mm/4x5 view camera photography while attending college for my art degree. It is really hard to fault the Nikon 50mm f/1.8D. On my D610, the pictures are really, really sharp, and the colors are vibrant. Auto focus is fast and accurate. If you use something nicer like a D810, it should still work very well. If I owned a D850, then I might consider something with a little more resolve power, but this lens would still be a great backup.

I love this lens. I started photography out with a Tokina 2.8 wide angle, and really needed a prime lens for everyday shots. This lens does exactly what it should for the price.

Compatible with F mount Nikon bodies and DSLR's aswell, although metering will have to be done manually. Bought these for beginning students to have them appreciate this classic focal length and wheen them from the starter kit zoom lens that comes with most cameras.

One of the best normal lenses for an FX camera

This lens is great for taking portrait and fading the background. I also use it on some products shot. I think anyone taking photos should have one of these. I am retired now and can' afford to buy some of the more expensive lens so I will use this with my other two lens. I have been using Nikon lens and cameras over50 years.

This lens is great for low light shots. Focused when my other lenses hunted. Tack sharp until f22. A little soft. Focus is fast and quiet. Great lens for landscape, close up and fine detail, and portrait. I used one all the time when I shot film, but with digital I started out using short zoom and got lazy. This has brought back fun and challenges. I recommend buying one. it sure got me out of a jam shooting the interior of a building. Not as much angle of view as my telephoto, but I couldn't get the lens to focus and the images were soft. The 50mm saved my shoot!

It didn't fit like the Nikon USA lenses. The plastic was cheap, the mounting ring was hard to twist on my Nikon D 7100...I had to force the twist. It should be advertised as a non USA Nikon lens.
