Fantastic Nikkor 50mm f/1.8 Test Samples

Posted by David Chin on October 30th, 2006 in Amazing Nikon D80 Image Samples

Thanks to the generosity of Miancu, we have this series of downsized (approximately equivalent to 2MP) images from the superb Nikkor 50mm f/1.8D AF lens. The Nikon SB-800 flash was also used to illuminate the scene.

  1. View a larger version of the images (be prepared for the long download time!).
  2. Read Miancu’s comments on the Nikon 50mm f/1.8 lens and SB-800 flash. About the only thing I’d like to add is that the 50mm f/1.8 might be “softer” at f1/.8 or f/2 than at f/4 or even f/8, but that is still more than sharp enough for portraiture … see this gallery for example, where most were shot at f/2.
  3. Enjoy more of Miancu’s excellent photography with the D80 at his Flickr.com gallery.
