Looking for Answers about Nikon Inc. AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.4G?

yes it will

yes

Yes the D90 can use any AF-S lens as well as AF lenses. Focus is faster on AF-S.

Yes it will. And it's a great lens.

yup

Yes it will work.

Yes.

Yes it will.

I'm not pretty sure if the 35mm DX will have the 52.5mm in a DX camera. Since it's a DX lens, 35mm will stay 35mm when mounted in a DX format camera.

Thank you very much for answer! It helps a lot ^^
Now I'm still a beginner so i think I will stick with DX format for couple years before getting myself a better body

No, the reason the image is cropped because the sensor in a DX camera is smaller than an that of a FX camera (35mm) and overall has a much narrower angle of view at the same focal length. All APS-C cameras have this problem (canon crops to 1.6x with most of their DSLR cameras).

If you where using a FX camera, with a DX lens you can set the camera to use the DX lens but because of the size of the sensor you get around half the MP because not all the sensor is being used.

If you want to shoot at 50mm, I would suggest getting the 35mm 1.8G DX which is the equivalent of 52.5mm lens.

So It will automatically display FX in DX crop mode right? Is there is anyway to fix this, for I would like to shoot photo with normal view angle of 50mm.

The 50mm is a lens you must have in your camera bag; it's the most common to use and the best to learn photography; the 1.4 allows to gather more light in a darker scene than the 50mm 1.8, but this doesn't make it perfect; for example, if you take pictures of a group of people, (with the 50mm 1.4) and those people are some in front and some behind in the group, you'll be surprised how sharp this lens is; in this picture, you'd see some people's face will appear a bit 'softer' (like those people in the back of the group) and some perfectly focus (those people standing in the front of the group); a little distance between the people (your subject) does make a difference; if you can afford it, get both; or you may rent these lenses and then decide which one(s) you want to invest your money in. Both lenses allow you to be creative; how you develop your style of 'managing the light' is up to you.

When I bought my 50MM 1.4G, I also researched the topic of what is the difference.
The most common answers I was finding was a more consistant output and no color loss in which was experienced with the 50MM 1.8. Hope this helps

If you have the money, I would defintely go for the AF-S 50mm f/1.4. I've had both and the f/1.4 definitely delivers way more. I don't have to edit the pictures it takes at all, each photo taken is spectacular.

Yes, I have both cameras and works perfect.

not the fastest to focus but not bad, will work auto with both..

This is normal, because in an auto mode it's more likely to have an 1/60 and an 2.8 depending on the illumination. So try to use it in semi or manual modes :)

You didn't give in enought info but it sounds like you are testing the lens at a low light conduction (may be indoor?) and the
camera had gone in to a flash mode when you try you lens out.
When the Flash is on on the camera the camera try to contro the brightness of the photo by controing how much flash power it will user rather then contro the shutter speed and aperture

Because it' a great lens and popular and pros use them. It's the less expensive version of 24-70mm f2.8. Moreover, it's fast and great in low light.

This lens is highly sought by many photographers and they can never be in the store too long. Selling like hot cakes, first come first serve. If you see one, go get it, you'll not regret our purchase.

all af-s lenses have autofocus on d40, d60, d3000, d3100, d5000 and d5100.

I use this with the D700. The g has two benefits.
1. It has the latest optics enhancements
2. It has the g's M/A focus. This allows you to press the button to autofocus, but then correct the focus manually without switching to manual on the camera. This is a huge time saver and will frequently help you capture that fleeting shot when the focus needs to be somewhere other than the autofocus thinks it should be.

You get the front and rear covers and a lens hood. No filter

Yes it will.

Yes.

no

I suggest you to go to different galleries and check what and when ppl use for different situations. 50mm on D7000 (DX) is the same as 75mm on FX (full frame). That makes it practically great portrait lens.

The D50 has an internal focus motor so pretty much all DSLR lenses for Nikon DSLRs will work.

It will work on a D5100. However since the D5100 is a crop sensor camera, it gives angles of view similar to what a 75mm lens gives when used on an FX or 35mm camera.

massive supply issues with all Nikon stuff since the floods last year.. :-( hoping it'l be sorted soon (question above) i'm wanting a new camera as mine has problems..

Yes, the D5100 will work with the AF-S Nikkor 50mm f/1.4G.

In fact, any lens that has AF-S in its name will work on the D5100.

AF-S means that the lens has the Silent Wave focusing motor built-in. The D5100 does not have a built-in focusing motor, so it requires that you use AF-S lenses.

Yes it is, lens has built in focus motor.
