This prime lens with a fast f/1.8 aperture is ideal for low-light, travel, and portrait photography. Designed for Nikon DX-format cameras, it mimics the classic 50mm view on FX cameras. The aspherical element reduces distortions, while Nikon's Super Integrated Coating ensures excellent colour consistency and minimal flare. The Silent Wave Motor provides quick and quiet autofocus, and the lens allows close focusing up to one foot for creative shots. A rounded diaphragm delivers a natural bokeh effect.
