5 out of 5 stars Nikon 50mm f/1.8   July 17, 2008
I have a grownig collection of lenses, including the great 18-200mm VR and 70-300mm VR lenses, yet the lens I use most of the time is the Nikon 50mm f/1.8 lens. It works exceptionally well on my D50 where it focusses fast and with auto ISO...I get very sharp images with the available light, without having to use the flash. It also works well on my F80 film camera. Every Nikon SLR owner should have one of these lenses in their bag. (There are auto-focus issues with D40, D40x and D60...but I believe you can focus manually even with these cameras for great results.)


5 out of 5 stars Great Lens for the Price   July 17, 2008
This is a great lens for such a discounted price. I only used zoom lenses before the purchase of this lens. The depth of field is awsome on this lens. Of course on the Nikon D40 (D40x and D60)the lens does not autofocus because this particular camera does not have in-body focus ability. It took a few shots before I could perfect focusing but once I did that I loved it. If you can deal with having to actually exercise while taking pictures then this lens is for you.


5 out of 5 stars Great little lens...   July 11, 2008
This is an excellent lens for the price. It takes incredibly clear pictures and is great for low light situations.


2 out of 5 stars BEWARE D60 USERS ***   July 9, 2008
 1 out of 9 found this review helpful

I received the lens, couldn't wait to use it in action. The lens has NO AUTOFOCUS with the D60!!! What an incredible disappointment! How could a Nikon lens not have AF on a camera that was just released? This makes no sense but it works fine on a d300...no fair! Shots are sharp but it stinks to go back in time and have to manually focus.


5 out of 5 stars Fantastic lens at a great price   July 7, 2008
I just got this lens on July 2nd '08. It was fantastic out of the box! It gives me full auto on my D80, which means I get autofocus and metering. I can turn it to full manual aperture control, but don't need to on the D80. The glass is crystal clear, the focus is perfect, and it feels substantial to me.

I've seen the complaint several times that it feels cheap; I disagree. Every part works smoothly and perfectly. The autofocus is lightning fast. The focus ring and aperture ring work smoothly and without issue. I don't see what the problem is.

Get this lens!
