I followed the Dell customer review suggestion on this lens and the purchase was well beyond my expectations. At 50mm the DX format conversion equals a focal range of 75mm standard and clarity on the G series is much sharper than I could ever imagine!

"I recomend this lens as a fist purchase for anyone making the jump from cropped to full frame photography. This is an FX lens so if you are rocking a cropped DX sensor then this is a great portrait lens although there are better DX portrait lenses for less money.

Small, compact lens with high resolving power. Excellent value compared to the other 50mm Nikon lens. The Special Edition get rid of the gold print and introduce a silver ring. Optical characteristics are exactly the same only the shell is changing.

The focus ring is smooth, the images are sharp and most of all the price is right. Would highly recommend

I bought this to use with my Nikon D850 and I'm very pleased with it. The picture quality is fantastic, the images are very sharp to my eye. I love how light this lens is, I tend to carry this to plug the gap between my 20mm F1.8 and my 70-200 F4 both of which I use more often, so the lightness and...

Bought it for me son and he likes it so much. Took few snaps and they're awesome big difference between prime and stock lenses - I wasn't agreeing with my son earlier but later I had to admit that prime lenses do make a difference.

Would highly recommend to any photographer! Excellent quality, super speedy focusing, great value for money. Overall extremely happy with this purchase.

Excellent snappy little lens, Accurate and quick focus, Good build quality and sharp images as you would expect from a prime lens, Background Blur is superb especially when used as a portrait lens, I\'ve used it for landscape at F11 and tack sharp. The price as well is VERY competitive.

Brilliant lens at a good price surprising from debenhams!

Very nice, sharp and quickly-focusing lens. It's nice to use a fixed focal length lens and to concern yourself with composition and lighting and not having to worry about zooming in and out.

Nice sharp lens
