The Lens Is An Update That Adds A Built-In Focus Motor And Upgraded Optics To One Of Nikon’S Most Popular Focal Length And Aperture Combinations. It’S Sometimes Referred To As A ‘Normal’ Or ‘Standard’ Lens Because It Produce A Field Of View Roughly Matching The Human Eye And Are Not Considered Wide Angle Or Telephoto But Rather In-Between. All In All It’S A Modern Classic.
The Af-S Nikkor 50Mm F/1.8G Is An Especially Good Choice For Anyone Learning Photography. The F/1.8 Aperture Allows Experimentation With Shallower Depth Of Field And Shooting In Lower Lighting. The Fixed Focal Length Forces A Photographer To Think More Concretely About The Compositional And Perspective Effects Of Physically Moving The Camera Rather Than Complacently Relying On A Zoom Mechanism To Change Framing. It’S Also An Especially Affordable Way For A Photographer To Experience The Level Of Sharpness And Contrast Possible From Even Higher End Lenses.
