Gary Wolstenholme reviews the new version of Nikon's 50mm prime lens, the Nikon AF-S Nikkor 50mm f/1.8G Lens.
Outstanding optical performance when stopped down; Very good sharpens in the centre at maximum aperture; Excellent build; Light weight; Resistance to flare; Low levels of chromatic aberration
Barrel distortion a little strong for a lens of this type; Hyperfocal marking difficult to use
