Excellent lens for portrait. Very sharp. I like the bokeh of it. It is just a bit noisy when autofocusing. Works fine with Nikon D80 (apparently it is not compatible with older DSLR).

The price seems to match the description "f/1.4D", but the picture shown is of the costly "f/1.4G". This is misleading as the small difference in letter is easy to miss while most people would look at the picture and price. Please change the picture to show the correct one!

If you have a D90 (or any camera which has the SWM) it's a brilliant buy and value for money. You won't regret it! It's pretty quick and good for low light shots as well. It's a good lens for portrait / product photography.

There are plenty of great, maybe better, lenses on the market. I chose the 50mm f/1.4D because for me, it is a versatile lens to an extent. It is a prime lens, therefore one cannot zoom in (for those of you not familiar or new to prime lenses.

I am glad with the price it cost me and the delivery that I got for this lens from homeshop, its very good and the clarity is also amazing, I liked the lens.

Fast lens. Great bokeh. Soft focus at wide open. Sharpens at f4 and up. Feels more solid than the (equivalent) new G lens.

I am using this on my F100. The focus is very fast and very accurate. The bokeh is creamy and not distracting. I especially love this lens with traditional black-and-white films. The graininess works with the bokeh to produce very interesting photos.

Rugged; Fast / accurate auto-focus; Strong Construction; Lightweight; Nice Bokeh

working nicely

Used it the same day it arrived. Reminded me of the old days when prime lens was all I used. Loved the simplicity and boken I was able to obtain. Like always my order was shipped quickly and received in perfect condition.

Aperture ring; Sharp focus; lovely boken..
