    Sharp and beautiful Bokeh (out of focus part is lovely foggy)5.0/5

    Sharp and beautiful Bokeh (out of focus part is lovely foggy) Extremely sharp at 1.4, great for 13 x 19 prints, Bokeh is lovely, almost as good (98% as good) as the 58mm 1.4G and as the 85 1.4G! I took some outdor shoots in the woods at f/1.4 and you get sharpnes and lovely veiled out out of focus immdiate backgrounds! Artistic. Heavier but well woth it. (My 35 1.8G is almost as sharp, lighter, but does not have the Bokeh of this one at f/1.4. I prefer carrying this one because I love the results at f/1.4!

    Superb lens, expensive but worth every penny5.0/5

    Superb lens, expensive but worth every penny Magnificent lens, superb sharpness, even wide open. As a photographer, I have owned more than 40 Nikon lenses over the past 40 years and this is easily one of the best. it is a little bigger and heavier than my older manual focus version.

    Great lens!5.0/5

    Great lens! Not as sharp as the Sigma 35 ART 1.4 but excessively more reliable when it comes to autofocus accuracy. I love the contrast this lens creates and the colors are amazing as well! Pros: Fast autofocus Accurate autofocus Beautiful rendering Acceptably sharp wide open Cons: Price Chromatic Aberration (can easily be fixed in post)
