Nikon annouces 50mm f1.4 AF-S!
Well we knew it was just a matter of time. This was LONG over due, Nikon released today a NEW 50mm f1.4 AF-S. Replacing the aging, but still great 50mm f1.4 AF. I’m sure that this lens is going to be a great hit D40/D40x/D60 users. Due to arrive in stores in December.
# AF-S 50mm lens — a fast, single-focal-length lens with normal picture angle (when attached to a DX-format SLR, the picture angle is equivalent to a focal length of 75mm in FX/35mm format)
# Large maximum aperture of f/1.4
# Well-balanced design realizes both high MTF performance and natural-looking picture blur
# Newly developed optical system effectively corrects sagittal coma flare and coma aberration
# Silent Wave Motor (SWM) ensures smooth, quiet AF operation
# Two focus modes are available — M/A (manual-priority autofocus) and M (manual focus)
# Focus ring does not rotate in AF operation
# Natural blur effects thanks to nine-blade rounded diaphragm
# Although all lens groups shift during focusing, the lens barrel length does not change
