Pros: Sharp when stopped down. Good portrait lens at f/2.8. Solid manufacturing.

Cons: Usability of full aperture is disputable. Nervous bokeh. Not a night lens.

Opinion: Colors are a bit muted, which can be good or bad according to the situation. Wide open, images are rather soft with a distinct "glow", which can be interesting (esp. in black & white). Also, background highlights tend to coalesce into "liquid" blobs, which can see some creative usage. It seems at its best at f/2.8, where the contrast between sharp center and blurred background provides the best balance for portraits.

Pros: Beautiful! Beautiful! Beautiful! Extreme vignetting and soft rendering at f 1.4, magnificent for portraits in b \ , impeccable construction, double ring dripping, small and practical.

Cons: ZERO

Opinion: I have the smooth S version without the C (which stands for "coated") of 1973, the last with the anti-reflective amber for screaming bianconeri. I bought it for 70 € and I have lovingly arranged it: if you want the best look for the specimens modified at home, in this way you will also have the ring of the diaphragms with the scallops, very practical in the changed and aesthetically libidinous. On the D700 it is an enchantment, especially in the black and white: attenuated contrasts, imposing TA vignetting and soft rendering will guarantee you set portraits and fabulous half-busts. Range to f2 suddenly changes character, becoming sharp and contrasted for analytical photos. No one can call themselves Nikonist without having this lens in the bag :) Recommended for those who love images of strong character and do not let themselves be attracted by the sirens of sterile modern sharpness.
