The following opinions have been automatically translated with Google Translate.
Pros:very light, robust despite the plastic, very sharp after f2, blurry pleasant, costs almost nothing
Cons:unusable in the future (it has no engine af) so get rid of it as long as you can, the water and moisture enter like a sponge
Opinion:for me in 2020 don't buy it. it is difficult to give an opinion on an optics like this, which has been the school of millions of photographers in the last 40-50 years. impossible not to have it at least once in a lifetime. is it worth it? I don't think so. brother 1.4 is very little bigger and costs very little more but I liked it much more. version 1.4 is much sharper after f2 and has a better blurr. so between 50 euros for 1.8 and 150 for 1.4 for me there is no doubt. better 1.4 if you can. both of these optics are outclassed in all respects by the new afs versions NOTE WELL: these optics have no internal motor and nikon seems to be abandoning this old technology. so there will probably be no more machine bodies supporting them in the future. NOTE 2 the effects of these optics in my experience are very imprecise. even spending hours with the fine adjustment I have never been able to make them precise on the d800 ultimately are optics for vintage lovers or to start by spending very little. but in any case I do not recommend them and recommend the 50 1.8 afs
Cons:Unsealed lampshed, f1.8 aberrations, sensations that provides the ring for manual focus.
Opinion:Valid goal, even the construction as long as plastic I find it more than good, apart from the feeling that returns the focus ring. I use it with a d7500 and find the automatic focus precise and without hesitation. With extremely lateral light on some photos appeared the reflection of the knurling that we find inside so I decided to get the lampshh. I find the yield very good, especially closing it to f2/2.2. For 90€ difficult to find better.
Opinion:Goal to have. With just over 100 euros you take home a lens with character, which returns a good yield to the shots. Certainly the construction quality is not the best, which is acceptable if you look at the price, but the convenience of use will not make you regret its possession. Excellent compromise for newbies and beyond.
Opinion:Better than him he can only do the big brother 50mm 1.8 G AF-S of which I did a review https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4IbAzj9u5P0 This is small, cheap, portable to the maximum, sharp. Many people talk about the external material but I think it's perfect so and you've never seen one broken! So the important thing is how the photos do it! Rating 10, better if bought used.
Cons:At its price nothing, but if we really have to, it struggles a little to focus from afar at full opening.
Opinion:At the price at which it is sold is the perfect goal, especially for newbies, the weight and clutter are embarrassing in a good way, it is quietly in your pocket, the files are very good, I used it years ago especially on DX and I have to say that it satisfied me fully. There are no big flaws, of course if we compare it with the 1.4g, the 50 Art or the 50 (equivalent) Fuji there are no comparisons in terms of focus and beauty of colors, but here we are talking about a lens sold for a hundred euros new on Amazon.
