Nikon NIKKOR Z 50mm f/1.8 S Lens - Brand New review
What We Love. Objectively, the Nikkor Z 50mm f/1.8 S is a fantastic lens. Among the three lenses that Nikon rolled out alongside its mirrorless bodies, the Nikon Z7 and Z6 , this 50mm contender is proof enough that the manufacturer is off to a great start with its Z-mount series.
Pros:
- Incredible sharpness across the frame Excellent flare and ghosting handling Extensive weather-sealing Handles nicely Silent and precise AF
Cons:
- Bokeh lacks character Signs of purple fringing Won’t blow you away AF not as good in low light

Great Lens
I enjoy this lens much better than I did my 50 1.8 G. The images are sharp edge to edge and the bokeh is wonderful. These S lenses are quite good. I use the 50 1.8 at my Church quite frequently and on the Z6 it handles the low light as well as the stage lights around the baptistry and the photos are...

Nikon NIKKOR Z f/1.8 S Lens review
What a dilemma. Discounting the price, this is an amazing lens that reaches the very highest level of quality. However, there are many lenses not that far behind, almost as fast, even at f/1.4 where the choice widens considerably. These are a fraction of the price of the Nikkor Z.
Pros:
- Outstanding sharpness, Virtually zero CA, Excellent flare resistance, Excellent handling, Quality manufacture, Custom functions for L-Fn button, Sublime handling of point light sources, Virtually no distortion, Beautiful bokeh effects
Cons:
- Huge price tag, Weight, Screw thread lens hood

Nikon NIKKOR Z f/1.8 S Lens review
The new Nikon Noct is exceptional in its build, image quality and aspiration. Undeniably big, heavy and expensive, it’s impractical for the majority of Z-camera shooters, but actually more practical than I’d imagined. Its image quality is stunning.

Nikon NIKKOR Z 50mm F1.8S Lens JMA001DA review
Of course you can still complain about the price while remembering fondly the times when 1.8/50 Nikon models could be purchased for less than $150. Still these were, both optically and mechanically, much simpler constructions which offered also lower image quality and poorer standard equipment.
Pros:
- solid
- mostly metal
- weather sealed barrel,
- sensational image quality in the frame centre,
- very good image quality on the edge of the APS-C/DX sensor,
- acceptable image quality on the ege of full frame,
- moderate longitudinal chromatic aberration,
- negligible lateral chromatic aberration,
- low...
Cons:
- distinct vignetting on full frame.
