I use this for portraits and food photography. This is a sharp lens and I personally like the 50mm focal length on the APS sized sensors. I have owned this lens before (traded it in - big mistake!) - so I was pretty sure of what I was getting. Check out dessertpro dot blogspot dot com for sample pictures.

Takes beautiful portrait shots when it’s focused correctly. It can be a bit fussy. I’m still learning/playing with this lens, so maybe I’ll get more consistent results once I have more experience with it. The great thing about digital photography is not having to pay for any wasted film from experimenting! Where I’ve been frustrated with the blurry shots, I’m super pleased with the ones that have turned out. It took some wonderful low-light shots at Christmas. This lens is very, very flattering on the faces of my kids.

This is a good lense , I like the output.
Only difficulty is you need to move back and forth while taking picture as its only 50mm but I’m use to it.

This product had no problems and performs as expected. Manually focusing on active toddlers was not as hard as I thought it would be.

Purchased the Nikon 50mm f/1.8D AF Nikkor for my daughter’s Nikon D80, also bought the similar Nikon 35mm f/1.8G AF-S DX Lens for my D300S. Very satisfied w/results in low light situations especially indoors. If you never shot w/prime indoors, you will be amazed how good shots look indoors with a fast lenses as these, w/out a flash. Evening shots also look great outside w/both lenses. The Nikon 50mm f/1.8D AF has the added ability to be used for the full frame Nikon such as D700 without any corners being cut off (vignetting), the 35mm will have vignetting w/full frame camera. Anybody who has a DSLR should own a prime lens as part of their setups, they really are nice lenses, and low cost. I would have bought 2 primes of the same version of these lenses, but decided since both my daughter & I wanted a prime I choose the 50mm one for her & the 35mm for my self- figuring we could always switch as well, and would have more variety between us among other lenses we both own. Only drawback I see with the 50mm version is it will not auto focus w/some of the lower end Nikons. The Nikon 35mm f/1.8G AF-S DX will focus w/lower end Nikons as it has focusing motor in it, also cost about $75.00 more, and of course w/both lenses lack of zoom makes you have to move around & work for the shots. Build quality is good they seem solid- although I would not recommend drops as they are mostly plastic & glass. A more technical review is available at [...] & at Ken Rockwell sites.
As these were purchased as gifts for Christmas, I was glad that I opened the boxes prior to the big day & read the warranty- it stated that you needed to register them within 10 days of purchase to extend the 1 yr warranty to a 5yr.warranty. Kinda tricky of Nikon. Although they have done this for years & I forgot about it. Probably would not need to use the warranty in normal use, but hey- just my luck if I didn’t register for the extended then for sure I would have needed it the day after the 1 yr expired.
