Good Old Fashioned Fast Lens - For the $ a must have5
This lens is a must have. The 1.8 is awesome. I almost forgot how enjoyable these types of lenses were to use. It's almost like using my old 35mm film camera with a normal lens. The lens is great for portraits, close ups, and low light no flash photography. I have a D60, so the autofocus does not work with this lens. However, the green light in-focus indicator in the viewfinder works quite well and I actually kind of enjoy having total control over the focus. This lens produces sharp and vibrabant images. The build quality is excellent and for the money, this lens should be in your bag.

Great lens for the price. 5
It's a good lens for starter portrait photographers. Keep in mind that it's a 50mm... may take some getting used to.

Fab lens5
I can't say enough about this lens. It's fab. I almost never take it off my camera. If you're on the fence about this lens now is the time to get off it quickly and buy it.

I did lots of research on this lens and everyone said it was a fantastic lens and I am not disappointed at all.
