    For a low cost Nikon prime lens, this is a gem! Every pro and serious enthusiast should have one of these in their gear bag.

    I bought my Nikon D3100 as a bundle from another store about two years ago. It came with one zoom lense. I was NEVER getting the shots I wanted I always felt like they were very out of place and just ugly. FINALLY I was able to afford this 50 mm lense. Best lense I have EVER bought and has completely made me change my mind about just buying a standard point and shoot device.

    I absolutely LOVE this lens! I had the manual version previously and it truly is a pain to take pics in low light without the auto focus that this lens has. Word of advise, don't use manual lenses for prof. photography quality, especially when photographing people in low light/sunsets, its very difficult to focus. This lens however, did not disappoint, I'm in love!
