I was a bit skeptical that I wouldn't use this lens that much given it's focal length. But recent I started doing in studio fashion/beauty shots and I have to say, the images I get with this lens and my D750 are just unbelievably sharp, almost to a fault (not really), but yes, with some people post...

I bought this lens to use with my DX-format D40 and FX-format N80. I needed a fast portrait lens with AF and metering, hence the choice. From a very limited testing so far, I can say this is a great addition to my bag of lenses.

Awesome lens for portrait. 1. 1.8 good for night photography. 2. Fast auto focus. 3. Sharp image. 4. No Image Distortion when shooting in minimum distance when comparing with 35mm OR 50mm. 5. Great Bokeh.

Outstanding sharpness just like it smaller brother 50mm f1.8. I nice and light with super quick focus. Great buy!!

If you are really serious in portrait photography and like to see professional looking results with super smooth bokeh then you would not get any better lens in this price range. This lens offers great sharpness and superior picture quality.

good

Item is awesome!!! So happy with it.

Comes along with Hood; I didn't expect it; Highly appreciated

Nothin..

One of the sharpest prime lenses Nikon has ever produced. Sharp even at f1.8. Very nice bokeh as one would expect. This is a worthy successor to the venerable "D" version of this lens. A new classic 85 portrait lens in F mount.
