Customers are saying

Customers enjoy the product's excellent sharpness across the entire frame, which is a highly praised feature. Many also appreciate its great build quality, reasonable price, and relatively light weight, alongside its good low light performance and preferred focal length. However, a few users have reported that the focusing can be loud.

    This is one of the best and sharpest nifty fifty glass I have used. Very fast and beautiful bokeh. It out performs the f1.2 I own. I bought because I wanted the s mount and I am happy I did.

    The z 50mm 1.8 s is awesome! I shot on the Nikon Z6 and this was the first lens I ordered with the camera and have no regrets. The pictures are crisp and detailed with this lens.
