Top Rated Gear: Used Yongnuo 50mm f/1.8 Auto/Manual Focus Standard Prime Lens for Nikon Cameras undefined

This fantastic prime lens is an excellent addition to your current lens lineup. With a 50mm focal length and F1.8 aperture, it's perfectly suited for portraiture. A 50mm lens also tends to be close to the human eye in terms of magnification factor, making it ideal for casual and street photography. The large max aperture also lends it to lower-light situations better than the standard kit lens, which might max out at F4 or F5.6.  This lens features multi-coated glass elements for proper color rendition and minimal ghosting or flaring in bright settings. It's suited equally well for shooting on full-frame camera bodies or APS-C format cameras, where it actually provides an 80mm equivalent focal length. The aperture diaphram is made up of 7 individual blades, which provides a smooth bokeh when you're working with selective focus. As for the mount itself, its contacts are gold-plated, allowing for a perfect connection and reliable functionality with the camera.  At the entry level of photo gear, this lens will do what you ask of it, delivering sharp images and helping you save both space and money for filling up the rest of your camera bag.

go  to lens

Lens is expected quality for the price. However, the auto focus feature on the product I received does not work at all. The lens is properly attached, but does not respond at all.

Broken autofocus

I bought this “nifty fifty” lens to test drive before investing in a more expensive lens. However, I’m very pleased with the quality of images this lens produces. If you are looking for a lens with a low F stop, this could be it. With F1.8, this lens can produce some fantastic images with an impressive depth of field, and it works especially well in low light. This lens is great for portraits, landscape, close ups (although the minimum focusing distance is a little over 1 foot) and more. Very versatile, inexpensive, and small, so why not try it out?

Fabulous lens for the price

Quality

The lens works great and I can get some really good pictures with it. It does feel cheaper than the canon brand version and some of the parts sound loose on the inside so I try not to shake it too much while moving it. But overall, its exactly what I expected for the price I paid for it. It might not be the best for more experienced users but I am satisfied with my purchase.

Great starter lens

Brilliant focus and crystal clear subject shots! So grateful to have found this lens with such a great team at Adorama!

Must be the 55mm!

great all round lens

I like this lense and it takes good pictures. I would recommend this to others.

Good Lense

I liked that it captured the subject in full frame, however, it was not good with attracting light. So I had to put my ISO very high.

It’s a pretty decent lense, especially for close up shots

Great value sharp on Z6 with FTZ adapter.

Best value 50mm

I bought this for a friends teen. She liked the Bokeh effect she saw with mine. She is having fun with it. No complaints.

Nifty 50

Bought these for my students- Wonderful so far and images are coming out crisp

Nice lens for the price

My Nikon camera came with the typical lense but I was looking to get another one for more professional looking pictures. A friend recommended looking into Adorama.com, so I did some research and this lense had great reviews and it was a very reasonable price. I was a little nervous going with a less known brand but it fits perfect on my camera and I'm loving it so far. I am still getting used to the no zoom, but that's the only draw back. I definitely recommend this lense!

Great lense

Cool

Very nice lens. Smooth focus and rings. Light weight and good build.

Very, very nice lens for the money

Works as expected this is a G format lens so no aperture ring, great quality, sharp all the way down. I use it at f/1.8 all the time, quick focus, easy manual, quiet. My only detraction is I bought this new, and now between the elements micro particles can be seen. Not present in the pictures, just under light, looking into the lens.

Nice AF Drive

I highly recommend this lense. It works perfectly fine, it's very light and well constructed. Also, it gives the same result as any other 50mm would and it costs way less. É

Highly recommended

It works perfectly in manual focus with my Nikon D5300, the automatic focus is not great but it can be useful sometimes. I use the lens just for filming and there is a huge difference between kit lens and this 50mm super cheap lens!

I´m glad I found this product!

I used this lens a couple of times then the aperture stopped working as it was stuck on f1.8. Since it sat in my bag for several months it was passed the warranty period so in to the trash it went.

Lasted for a dozen shots

Couldn't ask for a better budget 50mm.  Gonna look at there other lenses as well.

Not bad...not bad at all

This 50mm lens is well made and performed as well as a more expensive lens does.  I will definitely purchase again from Adorama.  Thanks for your fast shipping.

Great Lens!

Great!

I've been using this for about a week now. First time shooting on a 50 mm, but I'm impressed by the sharpness and bokeh. Good lens on a budget.

Quality lens

If you're looking to get this lens on a budget then this particular brand is good for the price. After reading up on some reviews I was worried the sharpness of the photos would be compromised with the cheaper brand. Its perfectly capable of taking sharp images, but of course the Nikon and Canon brands are just a little bit more crisp. But overall great quality for the price.

Good Quality for the Price

50mm Lens perfect addition

An absolutely wonderful lens, especially for those who are just getting into photography and are on a budget. The only slight negative is the build quality definitely feels a little bit on the cheap side but then again it is a cheap lense so that's just what you get.

Great lense, especially for the price.

I have read a number of bad reviews on this lens, and honestly, I'm just not seeing the claimed issues. Yes, it's a plastic bodied lens. Yes, it's cheap. I'm not a skilled enough photographer to be comfortable purchasing the Canon 50mm 1.2L lens or even the Canon 50mm 1.4 lens Bang for the buck, this lens works well for getting my skills up to par as a photographer. I'll invest in better lenses when my skills are improved and use this lens with my crop sensor camera when I do.

Surprised!

Bought as a gift for my son, who is a beginner photographer. He says it is very good and he is happy with it.

Son likes it

So glad to add this Nifty Fifty to my collection. Wonderful, llightweight lens with amazing clarity. This thing is tack sharp. And what an incredible value. Highly recommend this, esp. for beginning photographers who are learning light/aperture.

Get this Nifty Fifty

I've been using this lens for a few weeks and extremely happy with it. I haven't taken it off my camera. A great lens for a great price.
