Excellent lens I am a total novice at photography and have only had my (2nd hand) Nikon d70 DSLR since July, but recently learned enough to get my camera off of fully automatic settings and I now shoot in RAW format with manual settings. The transition from JPEG/automatic to RAW/manual already improved my photos, but this lens has been an incredible asset to the quality of my photos. In the week I’ve had this lens, it has become my “standard” lens – I only change it out when I absolutely need features provided by other lenses. SO worth the money. A must-have for any beginner/enthusiast.
Super fast focusing I don’t know why it took me so long to buy a 50mm prime lens… but this thing is simply incredible. Super fast focusing, *beautiful* bokeh. LOVE LOVE LOVE it. Takes ordinary images and makes them smooth and beautiful. I started using it with my Nikon D7000 and have recently been using it with my Nikon d810. Of course, there’s hardly a comparison between the d7000 and d810… but this lens works fabulously with both. I can’t say enough about it.As for the 1.8 vs the 1.4, I’m not really sold on the 1.4 for what I do. I do pretty much exclusively portraits taken from a distance relatively close to my subjects, and if I’m shooting in 1.4, there’s always a good chance that I will get a shot with the nose in focus and the eyes slightly out of focus. I rarely even risk it. For some situations it would be fine, though. For the extra $300 or so, I don’t know that the 1.4 would be worth it.About the 2 photos attached: both are shot with this lens; the photo of the baby…
