The AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G from Nikon is the classic normal-length prime featuring a bright maximum aperture and lightweight design. Corresponding to the natural field of view, the 50mm focal length is well-suited for a wide variety of subjects, including everything from landscape to portraiture. One aspherical element is featured in the optical design to minimize spherical aberrations and distortion for high sharpness and accurate rendering. Super Integrated Coating also suppresses flare and ghosting for improved contrast and color accuracy. Additionally, the Silent Wave Motor affords fast, quiet, and precise autofocus performance as well as full-time manual focus override. Bright f/1.8 maximum aperture contributes to both low-light performance as well as offers greater control over depth of field. Super Integrated Coating has been applied to lens elements to minimize surface and internal reflections for a marked reduction in lens flare and ghosting. The rounded seven-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality.
