Fantastic Prime Lens. It totally change the final results of your photography. Even more if shooting RAW. The kit lens is good, but it can't produce a nice blurry background. I will soon buy a 85mm 1.8 G for my D3300 and D7100.

It’s a great prime lens! And definitely an essential piece you must have if you are going to be shooting using prime lens . I’ve using primarily with portraits but it worked great with landscapes when i needed it to .

The f stop on this lens is excellent, and 1.8 with 50mm delivers a beautiful shallow depth of field. And f/1.8 also means better exposures at night, but the 35mm f/1.8 is a must have, if you need a wider depth of field at that f stop.

This lens is soooo cool. The quality is superB!! So whoever wants to take pictures far away, buy this now! LOL. Actually, I might need to buy the 35mm as this one takes far away. However, I still like it tho.

Great item. A very good quality lense for my new DSLR camera.

I was looking at purchasing a new lens for my Nikon d5100 and this lens is exactly what I needed! Perfect for portrait photography! I have been using the stock lens kit that came with the D5100 and I can't believe what I have been missing out on! You will not regret purchasing this lens ;)

It was just what I was looking for. Rented it to test it out and it worked great so I decided to buy it because I take pictures too much to rent it every time. It is so worth the money spent to purchase my own. Portrait pictures are one of the best pictures out.

Great lens and a must have for Nikon DSLR camera!!! This lens brings life to your photos especially if your doing portrait pictures!!! Happy with my lens purchase and would definitely recommend product for beginners or professionals!!!

I was looking to purchase a prime lens as an addition to the kit lens and was debating between 35mm and 50mm. After reading a lot of reviews decided to go buy 50mm and I was not disappointed. The picture quality is wonderful. Very happy with the purchase

absolutely love this lens. its nice that you can switch from auto manual. with the larger aperture I've managed to get some wonder night shots.I also like the fact that it comes with a hood. i would deferentially recommend to have this lens in your collection

I am new to photography and wanted a good 50mm lens for a reasonable price. My research led me to the Nikon 50mm f/1.8. It is a terrific lens, performs well and takes sharp images. I am very happy with my purchase.

Great lense for all around usage. Quality definitely matches the price.

I had read a lot of reviews for this lens and knew I wanted it. We planned a trip to San Diego for the Fourth of July holiday and decided to pick it up. It just happened to be on sale. I've been getting great images and I am just a beginner photographer.

I'm getting back into photography and wanted a 50mm lense as a general use lense. For the price you can't beat this. Are there better options, yes but they cost 2-3 times as much. I've been taking a lot of photos and have not been disappointed.

Love it and highly recommended! It might depend on you guys, but I like this lenses and always taking amazing pictures.

I have a Nikon D5300 and I bought this lens for portrait photographs. D5300 is has DX camera body (the crop ratio is 1.5). This lens is great especially in Aperture mode. I stopped using my other lenses for family snaps. I am happy with the purchase.

Not sure why I have waited so long to purchase this lens. What a difference it has made in the quality of the photographs that I take. It has definitely been a game changer. Best Buy has a fabulous price on this lens too!

Been looking for a new lens to play with. Especially as a beginner in photography. This lens is super useful. Love the quality of the pic it comes out with.

1 year after purchase and this is still my favorite lens to use. I use it a lot for taking headshots and also is great for putting it on my DSLR for more professional zoom sessions.

Overall I am very happy with this product. I think it's a great price and it has become my main lense for my portraits. I would recommend this to other amateur photographers.
