nikon 50mm AF-S f/1.4

wanted for my nikon D60

50mm AF-S f/1.4 lense.....

thanks

No help here, but imo the 1.8 is much cheaper and a better lens tbh.

Im after a lense for indoor/agility/show jumping - needs to be a quick lense...?

Do you know the price difference?/quality?

Im a beginner - and just had this lense reccomended to me

Personally I think the bokeh is nicer on the 1.4 (along with better build quality) - but it's down to taste I guess.

However the important thing is it's AF-S - and the 1.8 is not so will not auto-focus with the D60.

sorry azz still learning....

if you can point me in the right direction id appreciate it??

Im desparate to shoot agility but strugglin with my lense as its not fast enough :/ (since learnt)

With a 50 mm you'll need to get pretty close - so if you can't get close you may want something with longer range... but... that'll mean more dosh

Post a thread in the DSLR section asking for advice on the matter as not everyone will see this thread as it's in the classifieds section

yes someone quoted me around £800 i cannot justify that on a lense atm lol

i will do now thanks

Problem with the 1.4 is imo, too much barrel distortion.

1.8 provides just as good bokeh to suit my tastes.

Of course, for indoor agility etc - it would be no good as Azz has said, you'll need to be pretty close.

I'd go for a Nikon 18-105mm VR lens i have as a general walkabout lens. Even down at f3.5 or so, with the right iso setting, indoor fast photography should be perfectly achievable.

Has Nikon's VR too - so zoomed in it will stabilise for you too. Check out my flickr stream - most pics are taken with that lens.

thanks

much better price

50mm will be no good unless you are really close though. It's really a portrait lens.
