Nikon AF 50mm f1.4D | Secondhand

If you are looking at a fast, high-performance nifty fifty for your Nikon DSLR, the 50mm f1.4D is a compact and budget-friendly option that will not disappoint. The 50mm focal length is one of the most popular in existence, with it being used by many as their go-to everyday length, for sceneries, snapshots, and people, while this lens can be mounted on APS-C format Nikon DSLRs on which it provides a more magnified 75mm equivalent. AF performance is speedy and accurate on compatible DSLRs, although it must be noted that many entry-level DSLRs do not feature built-in AF systems, in which case this lens will not provide AF at all.

With its bright f1.4 aperture this Nikon prime lens can be used handheld for much of your shooting, without you having to rely on a tripod or flash. This fast aperture also does a great job at reducing backgrounds into complete blur, which helps you define the important aspects of your image and make them pop. Nikon’s super integrated coating has been applied to certain elements within the construction, which cuts down on ghosting and flare, and enhances contrast and colour accuracy.
