Whether you're shooting photos or HD video, FX or DX-format, the AF-S NIKKOR 58mm f/1.4G offers thrilling new capabilities and inspiration. When shooting photos or video in low light—especially at night—you often want your lens aperture wide open. With many lenses, though, shooting at maximum aperture can cause a slight distortion at the edge of your frame—points of light render as diamond-shaped flares. The AF-S NIKKOR 58mm f/1.4G is specially designed to combat this distortion while providing even brightness across the frame. Capture sharp, evenly lit photos and videos, edge to edge. The AF-S NIKKOR 58mm f/1.4G adds a dramatic sense of depth to your compositions—both at short distances as well as long-distance landscapes. When shooting stills of a close subject, the AF-S NIKKOR 58mm f/1.4G can achieve beautiful bokeh with soft, natural edges that diminishes smoothly away from your focal point. When recording HD video, use these outstanding bokeh characteristics for interesting smooth focusing transitions and drawing attention to your subject. . Paying homage to the acclaimed Noct Nikkor 58mm f/1.2, the 58mm focal length falls in the sweet spot between a standard lens (50mm) and a medium telephoto lens (85mm). On an FX-format D-SLR, it offers a natural perspective with just enough telephoto characteristic to exaggerate depth of field. On a DX-format D-SLR, its 87mm equivalent perspective is ideal for portraits and other medium telephoto uses.

  • Great lens! I was hesitant because of the price ...
*: Black
Great lens! I was hesitant because of the price point but the focal range, color rendering and design make it well worth the dough. As a full-time wedding photographer holding a camera (even with a rapid strap) puts a lot of strain on my fingers/wrist. This lens is so light you don't even know its there. It feels like its 1/3 of the weight of the 24mm or 85mm 1.4! The focal range is rad simply because you get all the nifty fifty versatility but not the distortion that the 50mm 1.4 puts on a closer portrait. I used to shoot my 50mm @ 1.4G a lot because it could handle it. My only complaint with the 58mm is that it doesn't seem to nail the focus as much @ f1.4. f2 is golden though. I'm still getting used to it so that aspect could be me but so far I love it. If I do need the wider look of the 50mm, which is rare, I use my 50mm 1.4D from my F3 film body. Still has the auto focus and aperture ring and works with both film and digital! #nikonforlife So far I have shot 2 weddings and 2 engagements with the 58mm. I tend to switch to my 85mm less now simply because it takes care of those closer 3/4 portraits of two people. If I was shooting a single subject I would prefer the perspective of the 85mm though. You can see some examples on my website/blog if you're like me and need a visual to confirm your purchase! WestonCPhotographer.com ... show more

  • A bit expensive, but it is a great lens
*: Black
I have a crop frame camera (D7000), and really love the 85mm portrait lens on full frame cameras. However, because of the crop factor, 50mm was too wide and 85mm was too zoomed in to get that ideal portrait length. 58mm is 87mm on a crop, and with a nice f/1.4 aperture to boot, this was right up my alley. I looked at the other 55mm 1.4s, but they weren't autofocus, or much more expensive than this one. Colors, bokeh, etc are great, and sharpness is really great - let's be real. I'm not printing 11x17s for everything, nor am I really super zooming in on shots in post either; the lens makes sharp, beautifully rendered photos for all of my use. Now you might be saying, "Why did you buy this lens and not use it on a full frame camera?" I don't really have an answer for that other than, I like my body, and was only looking to upgrade my lens. Maybe someday I'll upgrade my body, but then I'll have to actually buy the 85 f/1.4, and hopefully Sigma's ART lineup has an 85mm in it for even sharper photos! ... show more

  • Bringing Life to Portrait Work
*: Black
What a great lens. So far, I've used it for landscape, general walk around (during hikes), studio portrait work, and on location portrait work. As a landscape lens, this lens is extremely sharp at f8. If this is the only lens that I have and I need a wider field of view, I usually can get a way with making a panorama. Love taking night sky shots with it. Great as a general purpose walk around lens because of its light weight. Studio work is still nice because this lens is very sharp at f1.8- f16. On-location/Environmental portrait work is where this lens shines! I find myself shooting at 1.4 a lot more now since I am comfortable and familiar with the lens. I've tried the sigma 50mm art and that was a pretty great lens (more versatile than the 58mm), but the 58mm will bring life to your portraits. Here are sample images at 1.4 (child only) and 2.0 (mother and child). Brandon Charles photography ... show more

  • Finally, a Professional Grade Nifty Fifty!
*: Black
I own the current 24mm 1.4G, the 35mm 1.4G, and the 85mm 1.4G lenses. These lenses are all wonderful. They're sharp, professional-grade lenses that perform well in low light with beautiful bokeh, the 85mm 1.4G in particular. Despite owning these wonderful lenses I find myself using my 50mm1.4G around 90% of the time when using a prime lens. This is because the 50mm focal range is so much more versatile and useful to me with the type of photography that I do. I like the 1.4 aperture for its razor-sharp depth of field and low light ability. However, it has always bothered me that my 50mm 1.4G lens is not as sharp as the $200 50mm 1.8G lens. Furthermore, my 50mm 1.4G in no way compares to the quality, both build and optical to my other prime lenses. Honestly, I was hoping that Nikon would build a professional-grade 50mm f/1.2 lens like Canon has, but was happy to hear about this new 58mm 1.4G lens and pre-ordered it. I have never done this for any lens, but since this focal length is my bread-and-butter I went ahead and splurged. I wish that it took a 77mm filter like my other professional lenses (except the 35mm 1.4G which takes a 67mm - what up Nikon?), but a minimal step up ring solves that problem. I don't tend to use the hood on my 50mm 1.4G and probably won't on this lens as the front elements on both lenses are deep and protected without one. Also, not a lot of lens flare occurs in low light. Therefore, I can probably leave the step up ring on full-time (just need a 77mm lens cap). That all said, this lens is quite a bit larger and heavier that my consumer-grade plastic 50mm. It's shaped just like a smaller version of the 85mm 1.4G, which is lovely in my opinion. While larger and heavier than the 50mm it feels good on my D700 and D800E, with or without the battery grips. This is a big, beautiful piece of glass, in my opinion. I don't notice the change in focal length too much. 50mm is a bit tight in some instances and this lens will probably prove more so. This also probably means that my 35mm 1.4G may see more use in the future. 50mm is not a great portrait focal length for FX (perfect on a DX camera), but I still always find myself doing a lot of closeup work with my 50mm and the 58mm will help here. The minimum focus distance seems a tad farther than my 50mm, which focuses quite close (not bad for random macro shots). I haven't looked at the specs, so this could be my imagination. Admittedly, I haven't done a lot of shooting with this 58mm (nor has anyone else at this point a week after the release), but I can tell already that it focuses better in extremely low light than my 50mm 1.4G. I've been able to get the eyes sharp in very low light which has been a challenge with my 50mm 1.4G. No opinion on overall sharpness compared to my 50mm 1.4G. I'll let the techno-blogger geeks figure that one out. What I can say is that this lenses produces unbelievable colors. I am very thrilled in this department. So, if you are in the market for a nifty-fifty or want to upgrade to a professional-grade prime I don't think that you can do better than the 58mm 1.4G in the Nikon world right now. The 50mm 1.8G is a heck of a lens for $200 and will fill most people's needs quite well. However, if you want the very best and 50mm is your bread-and-butter like it is mine I'd say get the 58mm 1.4G now while it's still in stock... Happy shooting! ... show more

Many people point out that at f/1.4 the lens is soft but they fail to realize this lens is very useful for both people, Nighttime, and landscapes. You can see some photos taken with this excellent lens on the truetoad site, review section - just google truetoad 58mm. The lens is light - The lens focuses fast - The lens renders color and contrast very well - The lens is very sharp - Makes an excellent lens for taking people pictures - Yes it is pricey, but this lens provides a unique look and in my opinion worth the price. ... show more
