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

    I like this lens a lot because it did exactly what anyone buying a 50mm would it to do. On the D810 Images were super sharp similar to the 35mm lens (same type)

    I purchased this lens for an upcoming wedding. I have a Nikon D3300 camera and this lens doesn't auto focus on a DX camera. I read the reviews and decided to try it anyway. I'm not a huge fan, so I returned it and got the one with AF.
