Great value for the price
This lens is definitely a great value. Some distortion in my exposures, and the auto adjust is quite loud!

Smooth as cream!
This lens prevents me from getting a consumer zoom because they leave so much to be desired in image quality. Love this beauty.

Love this lens!!
Just wanted to share with everybody how much I love this lens. I have shot Nikons for years and got lazy and went the zoom lens only route.

DOES NOT WORK WITH THE D40
I have a D40 and got this lens…unfortunately the lack of autofocus is a real handicap…there were so many shots i just could not get cause manual focus was so finicky.

No worries!
Bought mine from BHPhoto 2 weeks ago and it has performed well so far on my D80. It was a tight fit when I first mounted it, I wasn’t sure it had locked in, but it works fine so…

Nice sharp lense
Very nice prime lense. I took a lot of photos of flowers with special effect.

Best lens that any photographer should have!
I had just gotten into photography, my Nikon D90 is the first DSLR I have ever owned, and this is my first lens I purchased; although I have used a variety of other lenses…

Sweet lens. Doesn’t work well with d40 but rocks on d90
Doesn’t autofocus on d40 or d40x but all other cameras for nikon it works with. A must have in ur bag if you are a serious photographer. I don’t go anywhere without it.

This lens has no match for its price. This is a great lens for indoor and portraits.
