A: The Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G Special Edition lens works beautifully with the Nikon D7200 DSLR camera. This super-fast, prime lens is ideal for everyday use and provides outstanding performance in a variety of situations.
A: I have the same Camera and I am very pleased with the AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G Special Edition. The low light performance is precise and sharp.
A: The reason nikon gave that vague answer was because mechanically there is no difference. Both are identical optically. The only difference is in the cosmetics; the added retroness feel to it, matching the DF style. If you want to spend the extra moneys just to get the retro hipster look as you take pictures then the "special-edition" is for you!
