Great lens make sure you camera has auto focus lens is a manual lens and doesn’t come with auto focus. I have a Nikon d750 and a Nikon D3300. My D750 has AF built in the camera so the lens doesn’t need to have Af built in. But on my D3300 I have to manually focus the lens

This is my favourite lens to use and is the best bang for your buck. I find pictures at f/1.8 a little too soft for me, but this lens really shines stopped down. If you're using a crop body it can be a bit too tight a focal length at times, but I would not pass it up unless you're using a D3X00/D5X00 body (it won't autofocus with those bodies).

This is a great lense to leave on the camera as a default lens. It is small, agile and versatile. I bought this lense because it was rated as the "best bang for the buck" at the Best Reviews website:

Initially i came in to buy the camera with another lens , but then sales person suggested me to get this one, and i ask him to show me whats so great about it. && i was impressed the way this lens focuses. Pictures come out picture perfect. I would recommend this for beginners.

Great price for what you get. I wouldn’t recommend it though, only because the lens has only one purpose, which is a close up focused photo. There is no zoom, but the low F stop is amazing. It’s great, but I wouldn’t recommend it.

I bought this for my Nikon D3200. Being a half-frame camera this lens is more like an 80mm lens, meaning that it requires a good deal of distance to frame a subject.

I was trying to get clear images of flat artwork. With the zoom lenses that came with my camera, I was finding the edges of the images were not very clear, slightly blurry. This lens seemed to solve the problem.

I purchased this for my daughter who is a novice photographer. She wanted a nice lens that she was able to use in doing portraits. She picked this out herself and is very pleased with it.

This little lens is great for dark shots and family photos. It lacks autofocus, but that is not a huge deal if you know your camera and shot.

Good image quality. On my 3500, everything becomes manual. Back to old days…
