    This is a good lense to start getting used to prime lenses. The auto focus is a little so-so, but the manual focus range is amazing. Highly recommend this for your into to prime lenses.

    Daughter wanted a camera for her birthday and this lense also. She's just beginning to take pictures and she loves this lense better than the 2 that came with the camera package.

    This lens. My god. Shoots phenomenal motion and at night. I've done a few shoots already with this attached to my D3200 and I've loved every second. It's now my go-to lens. I do a lot of automotive photography and am just getting into family and human shots (took me 3 dang years). This lens along with my 50mm nikon lens is the bees knees to say the least. Definitely worth every single penny!

    I really like this lens. It takes super sharp pictures. However, it is not a lens for Every purpose. Since you can't zoom it's sometimes hard to get everything on the picture.

    I bought this for my daughter. We went shooting on Christmas Day, and I was wowed by the quality of the images this lens produced on her D7100. An amazing lens, especially for the price.

    Great lens. Started out with the "nifty fifty" but found that this works just as good if not better. I'm a photo beginner but I'm having fun with this lens.

    I used this lens with two different cameras and it does wonders. The aperture is great for portraits as it blurs the background and makes the subject pop up.

    Great lens for low light. No VR on this lens, but, unless you're burning off three cups of coffee, you won't really need it. I use a tripod quite a bit, so that really isn't an issue for me.
