The pictures below illustrate the angles of view on FX (35mm full frame) and DX camera bodies:

Extremely even image quality across the frame; even on FX; Improved image quality over 50mm F1.4D at large apertures; Exceptional image quality when stopped down; Essentially no lateral chromatic aberration; Near-silent AF-S focus with full-time manual override

Slightly soft at large apertures; Somewhat susceptible to flare; Longitudinal (bokeh) chromatic aberration; most visible at large apertures; Vignetting at large apertures on full frame (essentially disappears by F2.8; Slower autofocus than the screw-drive AF-Nikkor 50mm F1.4D

Nikon AF-S Nikkor 50mm f/1.4G Lens Review

Nikon AF-S Nikkor 50mm f/1.4G is the latest update to the venerable Nikkor 50mm f/1.4D. The Nikon communality has been expecting this lens for quite some time now, considering that the previous version of the lens was introduced in 1995 and has not seen any updates since then.

Nikkor AF-S 50mm f1.4G

The Nikkor AF-S 50mm f1.4G was announced in September 2008 as the company's flagship standard prime lens. It shares the same bright f1.4 aperture and standard focal length as the much older AF 50mm f1.4D, but features an SWM focusing motor, which means it'll autofocus quickly and quietly on all...

The most affordable f1.4 prime from Nikon; Great image quality on DX and FX bodies; Quiet and reliable AF operation; Small and light; Weather sealing at the lens-mount

Longitudinal CA can be outright nasty; Coma shows in high-contrast situations; Some nervousness in background Bokeh; No image stabilization

Nikkor AF-S 50mm f/1.4 G - Review / Test Report

The Nikkor AF-S 50mm f/1.4 G is a very good lens that performes on a high level except for slightly soft borders and somewhat busy bokeh at wide open aperture. From f/2 onwards, the lens is able to deliver crisp images that do not leave much to desire.

On DX it's my 'bread-and-butter' Queen. And in when flash is not a solution, it just make the difference between a blurred picture and a picture I can sell.

Sharp from f2.0 and it's a perfect allround lens in low-light situations

Ca can be a 'problem' at f1.4 its a litle soft
