    Love this lens. I bought it just to try it out and now I take it with me everywhere. It’s quiet, fast and reliable and great for landscape.

    This prime lens is a great lens for portraits and “talking head” videos... not great for vlogging. There is a range of focus that is very narrow so that things in the foreground and background are nicely blurred... When taking portraits of a group, be sure everyone is in the focus field because it is a narrow range.

    Easy to use, but best used on "manual" setting. If you are looking for a Prime lens for portraits for your FX format Nikon, add this to your bag.

    This is a good prime lens for the price at 50mm and the photos did need some retouching for low light situations.

    This lens is perfect for close up shots. The subject clarity is amazing with a nice blurred haze to the background. Highly recommend!

    I like prime lenses and this works great. I don’t use autofocus a lot but when I do it is very quiet. The focus is sharp. Nothing bad to say

    This lens works wonderfully, I tend to take many photos, the great thing is that there aren't too many lenses out that are even "good" to start off with.
