Nikon 50mm f/1.8G AF-S 

Capture stunning images with the Nikon 50mm f/1.8G AF-S NIKKOR Lens. Fast f/1.8 aperture, aspherical elements, and superb image quality. Shop now!

While the AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G lens may appear simple, it is packed with features that make it an essential addition to any photographer's kit. This lens, designed to work seamlessly with your DSLR, is perfect for capturing stunning portraits and everyday scenes with exceptional clarity and detail. The 50mm focal length, equivalent to 75mm on DX format cameras, combined with a fast f/1.8 aperture, allows for the creation of images with a beautifully shallow depth-of-field. This feature helps your subjects stand out against their backgrounds, adding a professional touch to your photographs. This NIKKOR lens is also a master of low-light situations. Its fast f/1.8 aperture ensures that even in less-than-ideal lighting conditions, your images will be imbued with a stunning brilliance. This makes the lens a reliable travel companion, ready to capture the beauty of your journey, come rain or shine. The AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G lens also excels in creating a natural background blur, or bokeh, at its wider aperture settings. Whether you're photographing portraits, food, or nature, indoors or outdoors, this lens will render a beautiful, natural depth of field in your images. Nikon's Super Integrated Coating (SIC) enhances light transmission efficiency, offering superior color consistency and reduced flare. The Aspherical Lens Element (AS) virtually eliminates coma and other types of aberrations, even when shooting at the widest available aperture. Coupled with Nikon's Silent Wave Motor (SWM) for fast, accurate, and quiet autofocus, this lens guarantees tack-sharp portraits every time. The AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G lens, bundled with the ProOptic 58mm Filter Kit, is an invaluable tool for pushing your creative boundaries. With this lens, you can capture the world as you see it, in all its natural beauty and detail.

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)

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 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.

Great Lens, great price

50mm

I'm very pleased with my purchase of the 1.8x50mm lens.  Focus is sharp and low light photos are very good.
    The only shortcoming I have found is that the field of view is a little narrow when it comes to panoramas.
      But I still prefer to use it as my all around carry lens.
     Yes I would recommend this lens to a friend.
