The Nikon lens should rather not be used at open aperture, here the imaging performance is weak, especially as the vignetting is very strong. Stopping down by two stops improves the image quality considerably. There is no reason to complain about the very good manufacturing quality, especially since the operation can also be rated as a strength...
The Nikon AF-S Nikkor 1.4 / 50 mm G is tested as a good choice among fixed focal length lenses. It scores with good resolution and lens quality, but above all the very strong features must be praised. The autofocus in particular scores a lot of points.
The results when dimming are quite good, although not perfect, as here and there remnants of abberation appear. Nevertheless, the device is very well made and offers a solid set of features. Unfortunately, the images are not usable at open aperture.
The lens is an inexpensive alternative that delivers good image quality and is extensively equipped. In addition, the quite compact body is subject to a clean finish and the focusing ring is very easy to operate.
The very compact lens collects plus points with its solid equipment. Despite the good performance of the Nikon 50 / 1.4 G, it is very inexpensive. A good purchase for those who do not want to invest a lot of money.
