Nikon 50mm f/1.8 AF-D 

Top Rated Gear: Used NIKON 50 F1.8 AF-D LENS E MFR: 2137.

What sets the 50mm f/1.8D AF NIKKOR Lens apart is its exceptional combination of speed, precision, and portability, making it an essential addition to any photographer's kit. This high-quality prime lens is renowned for its wide f/1.8 aperture, which not only facilitates shooting in various lighting conditions but also achieves a beautifully shallow depth of field for that professional-looking bokeh effect in portraits and close-up shots.Crafted with versatility in mind, this lens is ideal for a range of photographic pursuits, including travel, portrait, landscape, and street photography. Its standard 50mm focal length offers a natural perspective, closely mirroring the field of view of the human eye, which is why it's often referred to as a "nifty fifty."The lens's advanced autofocus performance is attributed to Nikon's precise AF-D technology, ensuring fast and accurate focusing when capturing fleeting moments or dynamic subjects. However, it's important to note that this autofocus feature is not supported by certain Nikon cameras, including the D40, D60, D3100, D3000, and D5000 models.In addition to its autofocus capabilities, the 50mm f/1.8D lens boasts a manual aperture ring, allowing photographers to exercise full creative control over their exposure settings. This feature is particularly beneficial for those who engage in macro photography or employ advanced techniques such as reverse mounting for close-up imagery.Image quality is uncompromised with this lens, delivering sharp, crisp images with minimal distortion and vignetting. The optical design includes 7 aperture blades that contribute to the lens's pleasing bokeh quality, ensuring that out-of-focus areas are rendered smoothly and evenly.Constructed to be durable and reliable, this lens is encased in a lightweight body that makes it an excellent travel companion. Despite its compact size, it doesn't compromise on performance, offering advanced features that cater to both amateur and professional photographers alike.In summary, the 50mm f/1.8D AF NIKKOR Lens is a high-quality, durable, and versatile choice for anyone looking to elevate their photography. Its wide aperture, reliable autofocus, and compatibility with a range of Nikon cameras make it a valuable asset for capturing stunning, detailed images across various genres.

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

Light, sharp lens for my Nikon F100

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

affordable and excellent lens

Great lens so far. Still playing with it but glad I made the purchase.

50mm Lens

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.

nice little lens

Happy with purchase

it was exactly what i expected and performs beautifully on my D500.

50mm F1.8D AF

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.

Great lens

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!

Excellent lens!

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.

50mm lens

Nikon D5600

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

Portrait 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.

this is an awesome piece for portraits

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 for the price

Good street photography lens at 1.8

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.

Impressed by knowledge of their products and professionalism.

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.

Nifty little lens and price

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

Great lens for this price point

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.

A good lense, and incredible for the price

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.

Very Hard To Beat

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.

Great Lens For 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.

Nifty 50

One of the best normal lenses for an FX camera

Sharp as sharp can be

I'm very pleased with this lens. It takes great pictures.

Nikon D7200

Yeah

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.

Great lens for the money

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!

Great lens!

Works great on my d700

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.
