Nikon 50mm f/1.8G AF-S 

Kit Savings: Nikon 50mm f/1.8G AF-S NIKKOR Lens - USA Bundle with 58mm Filter Kit & Pro Software Set Color: Black

This Nikon 50mm f/1.8G definitely has the highest price-performance ratio. Small and lightweight.
 Great for portraiture, street, event, and wedding photography. 
The bokeh looks very soft and creamy at maximum aperture and takes a semi-round heptagonal shape when stopped down. 
Vignetting is heavy at maximum aperture but significantly reduced by f/2.0, and it is easy to fix in post-processing software.

I enjoyed shooting with this lens in bright outdoor environments; it does a great job in challenging light.
When you always keep the lens hood on the lens, you should have no problems shooting against very bright light sources.

If you are looking for sharpness and AF performance, then get this lens. It is sharper than all of its predecessors, including the Nikon 50mm f/1.4G, at the largest apertures.

I noticed distortion on this lens, but the more expensive primes, like the Nikon 50mm f/1.4G and 50mm f/1.4D, also have a moderate amount of visible distortion.

This lens will work on FX or DX cameras, although I recommend using the Nikon 35mm f/1.8G DX for everyday photography on DX sensors instead due to the shorter focal length (the Nikon 50mm has an equivalent field of view of a 75mm lens when mounted on a DX camera)

If your thinking about getting this lens, stop thinking and get it.  I was amazed at how well it works with my Z5.  You won't want to put it down.  Excellent!

Better than I imagined.

Fabulous lens!! Tack sharp, beautiful bokeh and an excellent portrait & landscape lens!!

Fabulous!!

Arrived quickly and in perfect condition. This lens is awesome and it goes with me everywhere. It's easy and straight forward and I would recommend it for novice photographers who need an unintimitating lens that will give you the courage to experiment and grow.

Simply put. Get it!!

Great lens, and even better and faster service. The included ND filter on the sale was worth it a I eventually will get a stronger ND filter and this let me get an idea of shooting with it.

Excellent service and product

Very easy to exchange the Nikon for the Cannon. Thank you for making it so seamless.

Great lens, for a decent price! Only putting 4 starts because it?s not my favorite, but that?s just because i want something a little more versatile.

Great lens for a good price.

Great prime lenses. Always one of my go too for weddings and protraits

Great prime lens

Great prime lens. Fast focus. Will always be one of my go to wedding lenses.

Great all around prime lens. Fast focus

Great for beginning portrait photography as is budget friendly.

Budget friendly

Great Prime Lens for my Nikon 7500.  It does well as expected, but only 4 stars because it's very tight getting on and off the camera. Unlike other lenses that seem to be smooth and easy to add/remove. The quality, however, holds up as expected.

Great Prime, a Little Tight to Add/Remove

Perfect lens for my Z family bodies

As advertised.  Excellent product

Great lens and the bonus filters was a nice add on. As always Adorama staff were helpful on the phone and the goods were well packed and mailed quickly.  This is why Adorama is my first spchoice in new camera gear.

Light weight, great optics, perfect for my small room studio. Reasonable price, too.

50 mm f/1.8 Nikon.

I use this lens on my Nikon D7500. The equivalent to a 75mm portrait lens. Sharp as a tack!

Nikon 50mm/1.8

Very Sharp lens! Shipped very quick and secure!

Great Lens and Packaging!

Excellent lens and came with a nice filter kit.

Great lens for the money!

A must own lens that should be in every photographers bag.

Excellent

Nikon 50mm lens

This is probably my favorite lens.  Really great bokeh.

Great Bokeh

This has been my go to lens.  The f/q.8 gives you lots of options

Very nice prime lens.

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!

Nikkor Primes Rock!

If one owns an FX camera, one should own a 50mm prime lens capable of low-light photography without skyrocketing the ISO, which Nikon?s 50mm, f/1.8 lens provides at a price that won?t break the bank. Opening the aperture produces fine bokeh for added pizazz, and the lens? light weight is appreciated when using a big camera like a Nikon D750.

Great lens; great price; great results?Need I say more?
