Brilliant! July 23, 2010

Sharp , contrasty, and lovely shallow depth of field at wide apertures. A delight after using a cheap kit zoom.
Perfect prime lens July 25, 2009

This is the only prime lens I own on my Nikon D50 and I've always been very happy with it. Small, light, well built and very sharp.
It's great for portrait pics. With the crop factor of digital SLRs of 1.5, it works out the equivalent of being around 53mm in old 35mm terms - a great length for portraits. That's also why I favoured this over the (admittedly much cheaper) 50mm f1.8 lens (the crop factor for which makes it more like a 75mm lens - a bit too much of a telephoto, especially indoors).
I'm happy shooting this wide open at f2. Contrast goes down when using it wide open but for me, that is offset by the lovely shallow depth of field and the ability to use in low light.
Probably also useful to know that as of a few months ago, there is now a new Nikon prime (the Nikon 35mm f/1.8G AF-S) that comes with AFS (meaning it will auto-focus on Nikon cameras that don't have the internal screw drive, i.e. D40, D40X, D60, D5000).
This lens model here, however, does not have AFS and will not auto-focus on the above mentioned cams, but will on other Nikon dSLRs that have the screw mechanism in the body (like my old D50).
All in all a great prime and no downsides I can think of.
Great little lense April 18, 2009

A great little all round lense, I bought I because I got sick of lugging around my 17-55 and found 50mm lenses a bit to long on my D300.
Amazing clarity up around f4. Terrific for close up work as well.
I found the build a bit disappointing and theres much more play in the focusing ring than I'd expect but it doesn't seem to affect results. Worth every penny.
