Hey /p/do you guys like this lens?http://www.amazon.com/Nikon-50mm-Nikkor-Digital-Cameras/dp/B00005LEN4/ref=cm_lmf_tit_4_rdssss0I think it would be ideal for low light urban shots, and all around faster shitter at night...
my toilet is the same speed whether its night or day.
>>188363fuckin lol man :Deveryone should own at least 1 fast prime.go-go-go for it!

You should have more fiber in your morning meals, then.
I have one, probably the sharpest and lightest lens I own. Not the most pleasing OOF rendition, but oh well.Pic related (to demonstrate it's bokeh).
I've used it before. Very nice. No complaints here.
i use to have this lens before i broke it.Get it, its fantastic for the price.
Might as well use this thread rather than make another gear thread. I was originally planning to get this lens brand new but a friend of mine is selling his 50mm f/1.4 around twice the price of a 50mm f/1.8. Is the 1.4 worth it?
>>188390Yes.
>>188390Hell yes, get it. As long as the lens isn't damaged.
Any other difference between the 1.8 and the 1.4 other than the wider aperture? Is it really sharper and does it really have better build quality?
>>Is it really sharper and does it really have better build quality?good lawd, read some review sights and stfu, and why are you questioning what people are saying, jeeez
>>188407yes and yes
>>188362best price/quality ratio. ever.also if you happen to own film slr, like i do, this lens will be ever more awesome.
>>188408I have both. The 1.4 is slightly better built and may be slightly sharper. The 1.8 is still sharper than any other lens in the Nikon line and is better built that most of the lenses in the line, so as has already been said it's definitely the best price/quality ratio out there. The difference in build quality between the Nikon 1.8 and 1.4 is not nearly as significant as the difference between the Canon 1.8 and 1.4.Only get the 1.4 if you really need that extra 2/3 of a stop or if you have the money to burn.
>>The 1.8 is still sharper than any other lens in the Nikon line and is better built that most of the lenses in the lineUmmm.....
>>188431yeah, that's an overstatement.I found the 50/1.8 to be far less sharp in the corners wide open than my 40/2 Ultron. Though stopped down to f/4 it's about as sharp as it gets.
