Nikon Inc 2180 AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.4G camera lens

Fast f/1.4 prime for Nikon F-mount

The Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.4G is a fixed-length prime lens built for Nikon F-mount cameras. It covers both FX and DX formats, offering a 50mm focal length with a bright f/1.4 maximum aperture. The Silent Wave Motor delivers fast, quiet autofocus with full-time manual override. It suits photographers who need shallow depth of field and strong low-light performance.

f/1.4 to f/16 aperture range and 58 mm filter thread

The lens opens to f/1.4 for maximum light gathering and stops down to f/16 for extended depth of field. Nine rounded diaphragm blades produce smooth background blur. A 58 mm screw-on filter thread accepts standard circular filters. Super Integrated Coating reduces flare and ghosting, preserving contrast and colour accuracy in challenging lighting. Close focusing reaches 1.5 ft (0.5 m) with 0.15x magnification.

Verify F-mount compatibility and DX crop factor

Before ordering, confirm your camera uses the Nikon F mount. On FX-format bodies the angle of view is 46 degrees; on DX-format bodies it narrows to 31.30 degrees, making it an effective short telephoto for portraits. The G-type design lacks an aperture ring, so exposure control relies on the camera body. Ensure your body can drive AF-S lenses for autofocus operation.
