This has to be one of the gems in Nikon’s line up for under £400 you can buy one of the sharpest, most compact lenses that Nikon have produced. A lot of people will say save your money and buy the f1.8 version, but having owned both I can testify the f1.4 is a better lens. It handles a lot better due to a slightly larger lens body and feels more weighted for balance than the smaller f1.8. If you use it on a D200, D300s or D500 you will get a cracking portrait lens as your focal length becomes 75mm. Perfect for blurring the background and making your subjects stand out. It’s beautifully sharp and your background will softly flow out of focus when shooting wide open. Great for Stella photography too. It’s one well worth keeping in your bag, or even for ditching the zoom lens for a day to test your skills with a a fixed focal lengthVollständige Rezension lesen

The Nikon AF-S Nikkor 50mm f/1.4G lens has preformed like a champ! The f1.4 really helps blue the background for portraits and provides a lot of light when photographing in low light conditions. The extra light really pays off and allows you to keep your ISO settings lower for better performance. I have noticed when I shoot portraits at f1.4, it is really important to take notice if the camera has focused on the persons eyes or nose, because at that small a depth of field one of those zones may be out of focus. The lens is light, focuses fast and has become one of my favorites in my camera bag.
This Nikon 50mm f/1.4G AF-S lens produces sharp pictures and great color and contrast. It is also perfect for portrait and other general purposes (semi-macro etc). This lens also produces nice bokeh. The picture quality and bokeh quality are comparable with the other (older) Nikon 50mm lens which are famous for being sharp. Overall, this is a very versatile lens. Many of us (including those who already own 50mm f/1.8D AF or 50mm f/1.4D AF as well) have been waiting for this lens for a long time, and overall it is worth the wait, and it is worth the upgrade to this 50mm f/1.4G AF-S. If you don't own any of the earlier version of the 50mm lens then you should definitely get this lens over the older 50mm non-AFS lens (especially if price is not much of a factor for you or if your camera body is a D40, D40x, or D60 which the autofocus with will work with those cameras as well). The big plus with this lens over the older 50mm lens is the AF-S feature which is auto focus system that is internal to the lens, very fast and very silent. This lens will please a lot of people who currently own D40, D40x, and D60, as they now can benefit from the autofocus. Another big win is the manual override on autofocus mode (M/A mode), which will allow us to change the focus without having to change the mode to manual mode (this is pretty standard to most Nikon newer lenses but it's a first for the Nikon 50mm lens series) Here are the summary of pros and cons for this Nikon 50mm f/1.4G AF-S lens: Pros: 1. AF-S AF-S AF-S (very fast focus, internal focus, and very silent) 2. M/A mode (manual focus override available on autofocus mode) 3. Very fast lens (f/1.4) 4. Very sharp pictures 5. Great for sport/action photography 6. Great for indoor and low light situation 7. Great for portrait 8. Bokeh is almost as good as many expensive Nikon tele-lens 9. Perfect for wedding photography (or low light with no-flash event). However, also check out the following lens for wedding photography (17-35mm f/2.8, 24-70 f/2.8, 17-55mm f/2.8, 28-70mm f/2.8 or the other two 50mm nikon prime lenses) 9. 75mm equivalent which can be considered a short tele lens (If you need more zoom, you can get the Nikon 85mm f/1.8, 85mm f/1.4 or the 70-200mm f/2.8 VR). If you have full frame DSLR(like the D3 or D700), then this #9 pros is not applicable. 10. Did I mention very fast and very silent focus? Cons: 1. Being prime lens, you need to move your feet a lot to adjust/compose 2. Being a G lens (no aperture ring available), this lens will not work on manual focus camera where you need to set the aperture from the lens) 3. Price is a bit on the high range for a prime lens 4. No VR. As VR will be useful for taking handheld shots on low light (especially if the object is somewhat static or if the photographer doesn't have steady hands when taking photograph) 5. 75mm equivalent with 1.5x multiplier on non full frame DSLR (many people find this is an odd range for normal lens). If you have full frame DSLR(like the D3 or D700), then this #5 cons is not applicable. Bottom line: This lens is so versatile that I think everyone should own this lens (or at least one of the other 50mm lenses) in addition to all the lenses that they already have. Being a very fast lens, it will allow people to take action shot in low light that otherwise wouldn't be able to be do. And now, with AF-S, there is nothing to dislike about this lens (though it will be nicer if this lens have a VR feature)Vollständige Rezension lesen
Very sharp but suffers from vignetting at wide apertures which is to be expected. This can be addressed in camera or by post processing though. Light weight but reasonably solid feeling.

This lens is the perfect portrait lens for a DX camera. It has the perfect 75mm equivelent focal length, is super sharp, and has outstanding bokeh. I am sure that it is also a wonderful normal lens for any FX user, but currently I only shoot DX. I honestly have no complaints about this lens. It is very solidly built, it focuses quickly and quietly, and really never focus hunts. I would highly recommend this lens to anyone in need of either a DX portrait lens, or an FX normal lens.
