  • The Nikon Z 50mm f1.8S is a very good standard prime lens for owners of Z-series mirrorless bodies: its optical performance is right up there with the much heavier and more expensive Zeiss 55mm f1.4 Otus including longitudinal color aberrations - which is...

  • Abstract:  I'd order the Nikon 50/1.8S from Adorama, from Amazon, from B&H or from Crutchfield as soon as any of them offer it. Be sure to look only for the mirrorless lens. Order the first moment you can and be patient. These will be so popular that only those w...

  • Sharp across the frame, even at wide apertures, Minimal chromatic aberration, Weather-sealed design, Solid, quiet performance
  • Heavier than F-Mount 50mm f/1.8, Pricier than F-Mount 50mm f/1.8
  • If you want a sharp nifty fifty for the Nikon Z6 or Z7, yes. The F-Mount option can do well with the FTZ adapter if you already have the glass, but the Z 50mm offers a better build and image quality if you can stretch to the higher price point.Nikon Nikko...

  • Bonne construction, Excellente qualité optique, Fabrication tous temps, Reprise manuelle du point, Distorsions et aberrations bien gérées
  • Grandes ouvertures en retrait, Autofocus pas complètement silencieux, Vignetage présent à f/1,8
  • À l'image du Nikkor Z 35mm f/1.8 S, Nikon signe un Nikkor Z 50 mm f/1.8 S excellent et agréable à utiliser. La marque a préféré une ouverture maximale qui n'atteint pas celle des hauts de gamme concurrents, mais qui ne cède pas non plus à la surenchère du...

  • Deze 50mm scoort vele malen beter dan de ander standaardobjectieven van Nikon en evenaart de beste objectieven op dit gebied. Nikon heeft bij de Z-objectieven ervoor gekozen om de lat een stuk hoger te leggen en is daar (weer) zeer goed in geslaagd. Het o...

  • Полутоновые градации воспроизводятся соперниками практически одинаково. Контраст создаваемого изображения в обоих случаях вполне достаточный. У беззеркального аналога баланс белого тяготеет к более холодным тонам, у зеркального — к желтизне. При открытой...

  • Enastående bra och jämn skärpa. Bra vädertätning och balans
  • Fokusringen är för känslig. Relativt stor för en 50 mm
  • Nikon Z 50mm f1.8 S är inte bara det självklara valet för fotografer som vill ha ett normalobjektiv till Nikon Z-systemet, det är också ett nästan perfekt objektiv när det gäller optiska prestanda. Knivskarpt från kant till kant vid alla bländare, stålkon...
