Pros: Classic and elegant appearance, optical yield, lightness, silence, cost

Cons: Depth of field scale only hinted at for aesthetic reasons, ghost images in the far-pushed backlight

Opinion: One of my favorite lenses, wanted and searched. It was born with the Df, but its quality allows you to work with much more defined sensors. Extended tonal range, gives a little purple chromatic aberration to the more open diaphragms. In the backlight it tends, depending on the angle, to produce very marked ghost images. Highly recommended for those who want a normal on their Nikon without spending an exaggeration, a real handyman who does not displease.

Pros: Classic cinquatino, simple and easy to use optical scheme.. excellent optical quality, with my DF and a pleasure to use it... sharp, light and returns very nice files!

Cons: nothing

Opinion: Kitd with df, works very well... I use it a lot for the street that along with the 35th of the same opening and my favorite lens... also used for set portraits gave me really very nice photos... I read complaints about his optical quality... but for me it's an optical octatus and it doesn't cost much!!! I've never done any tests of comparisons with altr 50 but a colleague of mine has 1 with 1.4 opening and tells me that this is better in sharpness... great light at all!

Pros: General optics good, sharpness, good contrast and lightness.

Cons: For what costs almost nothing, only a little tough blurred it.

Opinion: Excellent objective, fast focus. It has a quality of sharpness and vividness very good, ideal for landscapes, at full opening the yield is not a menace. Very bright and compact with a bearable weight, shoots compact photos and backlighting is good with sharpness after f4 excellent. Almost completed my kit and I was pleasantly surprised by 50mm. Advice to art photo enthusiasts both in the open and in closed places.

Pros: Aesthetics, construction, sharpness, bokeh, noise and speed of focus, sharpness, color rendering in the portrait, asferico-

Cons: Sometimes full aperture is visible a purple fringe, easily corrected in post production.

Opinion: Very beautiful goal, both for aesthetics and for the surrender: the construction is sturdy and reliable, the focus ring to focus a pleasure to use, the lens hood with solid and precise grafting and without giochi.rnGià from full aperture has a yield absolutely amazing for costo.Lo use of ODA as a portrait lens and to isolate particolari.Il bokeh is extraordinary, the sharpness at maximum aperture more than satisfactory, unlike many competitors that vaunted 1.2 are definitely in imbarazzanti.Superiore all the tests to his colleague 50 F1.4, has excellent contrast and supremely life-colori.Attenzione to micro moved on APS bodies with many pixel.La best thing is the stratospheric sharpness that never becomes exasperated or hyper analytical (for what There are macro lenses ...). Never crisis in focus, even when light conditions are very unfavorable, what about ... a real bomba.Aspetto to try it on FX! rnBrava Nikon!

Pros: Price, Size and Weight, Sharpness after f4, Yield Backlit

Cons: Sharpness between f1.8 and f2.8, yield mixed, blurred hard

Opinion: A good fifty to begin with, is cheap. I think offers the right, is absolutely not a stellar lens. I've had two and have never failed to delight me know about them: I find I've made a pretty mixed and I would not know how to explain this statement; in every picture taken with this objective there is always a but, never fully satisfying. It has many pros, first of all yield excellent backlight and sharpness after f4 great, but I would advise against it, as well as his older brother f1.4, especially for the yield of the blur, really hard and, in my opinion, bad from behold. Than normal this SE adds an aesthetic retro style and is altogether more beautiful, but taste, it does not change.
