Product Features in Detail
50mm FX-format standard lens (75mm when used with a Nikon DX-format SLR)
Offers a medium wide-angle perspective that’s ideal for street photography, environmental portraiture, and landscapes.
Retro design
Inspired by classic NIKKOR lenses.
Fast maximum aperture of f/1.8
Ideal for low-light situations or portraits with smooth bokeh.
Two focus modes
M/A (manual-priority autofocus) and M (manual focus).
G-type NIKKOR
The G-type NIKKOR has no aperture ring; aperture should be selected from camera body.
Distance information
D-type and G-type NIKKOR lenses relay subject-to-camera distance information to AF Nikon camera bodies. This then makes possible advances like 3D Matrix Metering and 3D Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill-Flash.
M/A mode
AF-S NIKKOR lenses feature Nikon's exclusive M/A mode, that allows switching from autofocus to manual operation with virtually no time lag — even during AF servo operation and regardless of AF mode in use.
SWM (Silent Wave Motor)
Nikon's AF-S technology is yet another reason professional photographers like NIKKOR telephoto lenses. AF-S NIKKOR lenses feature Nikon’s SWM which converts “traveling waves” into rotational energy to focus the optics. This enables high-speed autofocusing that’s extremely accurate and super quiet.
Aspherical lens elements
Aspherical lenses virtually eliminate the problem of coma and other types of lens aberration — even when used at the widest aperture. They are particularly useful in correcting the distortion in wideangle lenses. In addition, use of aspherical lenses contributes to a lighter and smaller lens design.
M/A mode
AF-S NIKKOR lenses feature Nikon's exclusive M/A mode, that allows switching from autofocus to manual operation with virtually no time lag — even during AF servo operation and regardless of AF mode in use.
Remarkably lightweight and compact body
With just a weight of approx. 190 g (6.7 oz).
Weather-sealed metal lens mount
