Nikon 18-55mm VR Lens Review

I just picked up one of these Nikon 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 VR lens lenses for my Nikon D300 the other day. I am quite pleased with it. It is very sharp and light weight, making it a great carry around lens.

Is VR really necessary in a lens this wide? Perhaps not, but I often shoot in low light and having a few extra stops to play with does help. VR is a huge benefit when shooting hand-held at slow shutter speeds from about 1/4 to 1/30 of a second. I noticed no vignetting at all (darkening in the corners).

It works perfectly. The staff at my local camera store tried to talk me into the 18-70 non-VR lens but I wouldn't have it (the zoom action on that lens is horrible). There isn't much this one can't do well. In some ways its optics outperform the more expensive 16-85mm VR and 18-200mm VR lenses.

Being under $200 makes this lens a no-brainer. Along side my 55-200mm VR I have pretty good coverage in two great and super-inexpensive lenses. The only lens I have that is sharper than this one is this one.

Nikon 50mm lens review

2008_07_19_17_45_26Today I bought myself the Nikon 50mm lens. I heard that this very affordable lens is not only very sharp, but very fast too. There is a faster version, the Nikon 50mm f/1.4D AF, but it is over twice the price. I figured f 1.8 was plenty fast enough.

What a treat this lens is! Not only is it tack-sharp, but it gives nice punchy contrast too. This shot of a wine glass was one of my very first shots, and I'm quite pleased with it. The build quality is just slightly on the cheap side, but I don't think it affects the performance in any way.  It sure is light though.

Immediately as I started shooting with it I noticed the images on my rear LCD looked more contrasty than with my zoom.  Deep blacks and vivid colours.

This lens is so versatile (and inexpensive) that I can recommend this one to everyone. Being a very fast lens, it enables me to take pictures in low light that I otherwise wouldn't be able to do. I love this lens.
