A few days ago I received my new lens (ref "Happy me")
Looking for a lens for my D7100 that is "Tack Sharp". Had a chance to try it out. WOW!! Pic is a RAW image with minimal PP and no Sharpening applied.
Lens us a 50mm, 1.8G It is amazing. Don't know how much will be lost in the upload of this picture but see if you can Zoom in on the hair. Picture is amazingly sharp. Picture metadata is F 7.1, 1 320/sec, ISO of 800. Only prime lens I have. It is definitely my sharpest. This is going to be fun.
Good Shooting

The Heart-break Queen of the Class of 2028! Great shot.
Sincerely glad you are a happy camper!
Thanks for the comeback. It's amazing when you find something that really impresses you. I've heard for years that prime lenses are sharper than zooms. I guess I'm a slow learner but I think I found out something exciting and it's fun to share.......
Good shooting :lol: :lol:
Looks to me like a very good lens.
I've tested my lenses and my cheapest lens, the 50mm f/1.8D is the sharpest. Enjoy!
I can relate. Wish I had picked up on this first

For the money the 50 is a great lens :thumbup:
I have read about this lense and f7.1 seems the reported sharpest. Of course if that gives you the DOF you are after.

I must admit when I first got this lens I did get court out quite a bit with not enough DOF , all my folt .
I have the same lens for my D7100 and it is amazingly sharp with great color and contrast. Nice to have in the bag and it excellent for landscapes too. :thumbup:
