Pros: Good sharpness from 2.8, nice handling and focus, good color, protected (recessed) front lens, moderate barrel distortion

Cons: Some purple fringing and lesser contrast wide open, but still quite usabe at f/2.

Opinion: Maybe my favourite 50mm in the Nikon lineup. "Interesting" bokeh with lots of character; people may like it or not. The straight six-blade diaphragm produces nice sunstars at night. Good color, dense and saturated. Moderately prone to flare. Extremely sharp at f/5.6-f/8 with average contrast. In most cases, the barrel distortion does not require correction.

Pros: Sharpness, bokeh, fluid ring nuts and solidity.

Cons: Nobody

Opinion: Resistant to flare sufficiently compared to other vintage lenses, but better match it to a lens hood. For the rest the sum of the pros makes this objective an excellent compromise of result compared to the current cost of the used (a 50ina €). Mine was my father's and we owned it from the early ' 70. Really deserves a top rating. Needless to spend on modern optics when you have in your home a product of this type. I matched it to a viltrox speedbooster to bring it to f 1.4 35mm. Sharp at all focal lengths... what else to add?

Pros: cheap, robust, creamy color, and particularly pleasant bokeh, warm tones, never excessive, very crisp

Cons: nobody

Opinion: I possess twenty-five years, I recently wanted to check on the Df and .... ZAC! ... E 'taken the magic and love ... rnFornisce pasty color and warm, despite everything realistici.Nitidissimo at all apertures , has a very special bokeh that, in my opinion puts him in the narrow circle of optics that inherently possess its own magic ... in my galleries there are a couple of test images, but soon I'll add altre.rnLavora also well on D800 , think a bit '....
