Perfect lens if you want to upgrade your 18-55mm kit lens. Very affordable. Has amazing blur and exceptional picture quality overall.

I Love this lens! It works great in low light and the picture quality is simply amazing! I highly recommend this lens.

If you own a crop sensor or full frame camera, this lens is amazing. On crop bodies, it can be a bit tight in some situations; but the performance is amazing. When shooting wide open the images are very sharp at the center, which is what I like a lot more about this lens than the 35mm 1.8.

When I bought my D600, I also purchased a 50mm f/1.4G along with several zoom lens. I wasn´t at all impressed with the f1.4G and returned it. It was slow to focus and just not as sharp as I expected it to be, especially for a $500 lens. My camera salesman suggested the cheaper 50mm f1.8G instead and after reading several reports on it, I bought one. Very nice results, very fast to focus, very sharp, great in low light and easy to carry around. A bargain as well.

No regrets!

I have been waiting on this lens for MONTHS Months. I´m so excited to finally have it!! It works wonders outdoors. I don´t have a speedflash (next investment) so indoors I tend to get blurry pics because of the low shutterspeed required for the depth of field (2.8 and lower). However, this is worth every penny.

You can still get amazing photos at higher fstops.

if you are new to a dslr wont to learn aperture settings and shutter speeds do to affect the picture u need a fix focal length lens and u have found it. this lens will make u fall in love with it like i did worth every dollor u spent on it. i use the new D3200 camera and it just makes the pictures pop with the new sensor.

This lens takes tack-sharp images even in low light situations. Jaw-dropping bokehs. Works great with DX and FX formats. Great for portraits, candids and general photography. Compact and lightweight design. An absolute must-have!!!

I got this lens 4 days ago and I just used today, it is a great lens. you can take Bokeh photos.

I have had this lens for over a year now and I rarely take it off my D3100. While sometimes 50 mm is too long for what I am shooting, I somehow always manage to get the image I am looking for. This lens works under all circumstances. I have used it through a variety of things - from taking pictures of soccer games to homecoming pictures to lovely images of nature and wildlife and great portraits. The bokeh is fabulous and this lens works like magic in low light conditions. For the quality of the images and the quality of the lens, I think at $219 this lens is a steal and is a must have for any Nikon user.
